   Bangkok is served by two airports: Suvarnabhumi (pronounced “su-vahn-a-boom”, the final “i” is silent) Airport (__BKK__) and Don Mueang Airport (__DMK__). Suvarnabhumi Airport is the main airport and used by all full-service airlines, but most low cost carriers use Don Mueang Airport. Both airports lie about 30 km (19 mi) out on opposite sides of the city, so be prepared for a long ride to get into the city centre.

   Medical care in Thailand is excellent. It is much cheaper than more developed countries, but a serious incident can incur substantial charges. You should have your own travel/health insurance before visiting Thailand.

   Thailand uses the Thai baht as its currency, 38 THB is approximately 1 USD. Credit cards are widely accepted (Visa and Mastercard always work, JCB sometimes, Amex only occasionally). That said, taxis, street vendors, and some shops and restaurants will only accept cash, so we do recommend having some cash on you.
 
   When withdrawing money from an ATM, you will be charged a fixed fee of 220 baht, so it's generally best to withdraw 5,000 THB or 10,000 THB at a time. (To USA residents: you can open an ATM-fee-free account online at [Charles Schwab](https://www.schwab.com/public/schwab/banking_lending/checking_account).)

-  Bangkok is hot and wet. In October, Bangkok has daily highs of around 32 Celsius (89F) and lows of 24 Celsius (75F), and you can expect sudden downpours of rain, especially in the afternoon. If you get caught in a storm, it's generally best to just wait it out in a mall. It's best to carry a small umbrella or raincoat (which you can also easily get at a convenience store).
