4. Koh Samui Airport





My own personal opinion is that Koh Samui Airport is the most beatiful airport in the world. It looks like a High End Resort.
When alighting the plane, try to be amongst the first few to alight as there will be buggys to drive you to the immigration counter. This will be for those of you who fly directly into Koh Samui from overseas.There are only 2 counters and the officers take a long time to process your entry. Being ahead might save you a fair bit of time. If you are coming into Koh Samui from other parts of Thailand, no immigration check as you are still within Thailand.Once you clear immigration and collect you luggages, dont be fooled by what looks like the pick-up area. You should head left until you see a travellator, get on it and then you will reach the pick up point.
Some hotels offer free limousine service to pick you up and you will see alot of people holding up names of travellers. If you do not have a limousine service arranged, dont fret as there are plenty of taxis on the 'prowl'. Here is where your haggling prowers come to test. Taxis here will charge you alot of money. What you shold do is haggle, ask for discounts and continue to do so. If you are not confident in getting a good deal, i would tell you to book a limousine service directly form the airport. "Might save you money" and Time.
