Lat Phrao MRT Station
If you're changing from the MRT Blue Line to the Yellow Line, this is where you do it, and you should know before you commit that the connection involves a proper walk. The Yellow Line terminus sits a few hundred metres out from Exit 4. Riders with a 15kg backpack have been known to describe it as a workout. Nothing wrong with that if you're travelling light, but with luggage or kids in tow, add ten minutes to whatever you'd budgeted.
The upside is that this is one of the more useful stations to be stuck in for a bit. The Park and Ride building next door has a Gourmet Market, food stalls, coffee counters and dessert stands, so you can sit down and eat properly rather than grabbing a plastic-wrapped something at the gate. Reviewers also single out how well the station handles passengers with disabilities, which isn't a given across the network. Exit 3 puts you back on the street in Chom Phon, Chatuchak.

Tips for Visiting Transportation
Take the Sleeper Train at Least Once
The Bangkok-to-Chiang Mai overnight train in a second-class sleeper berth is a bucket-list experience. Book at least a week ahead via 12Go.asia or at Hua Lamphong station. Upper berths are cheaper and have more headroom; lower berths have a window.
Use Grab Everywhere
Grab is the Uber of Southeast Asia and works across Thailand for cars, motorbike taxis, and even tuk-tuks in some cities. It eliminates haggling and provides fare estimates upfront. Load a Thai SIM or use eSIM to stay connected.
Rent Scooters Carefully
Always photograph the scooter's existing damage before riding off, and keep your passport — give a photocopy instead (some shops insist on the original; avoid these). Wear a helmet; police fine 500 THB for no helmet and accidents without one void insurance.

Take the 30-baht ferry, not the speedboat, unless you fancy paying for a tuk-tuk at the other end.
Samui Airport
An open-air terminal with thatched roofs and trams to the gates, more resort than airport.
Ao Ton Sai Pier
Every trip to Phi Phi starts and ends here, so plan around the boats rather than hoping for the best.

Small, clean and calm, but the check-in queues can eat an hour you didn't budget for.
