Well I'm all booked up - woo-hoo !!! 
Gone for the Nok Air option - 30kg baggage, bigger seat etc (Thanks for the tip scubasaurus). I've got six hours between flights to kill, and I know Bangkok traffic can be a pain in the 'Aris', but should be good !!

And Nok Air have those jauntily painted aeroplanes with the duck bill face on the nose cone...

It's about 50 minutes in a taxi if you get a good run. Around 300baht.
Bus 554 and 555, both operate 24 hours a day, about every 30 minutes. (I haven't used them, this info is second hand)."

"50 minutes!?
i guess this taxidriver cheated you and drove with you through city center!
if it takes outer ring road and a short cut just north of Don Muang (NOT the sometimes very congested Ram Inthra!) it should be much faster, maybe 30 mintues. there is hardly any traffic jam on the outer ring road.
but for what take a taxi as the bus is free!"

Cheers for that mate !! You have to keep an eye on them pesky taxi drivers from airports !!
Oh yeah, first step is to go to arrivals and get a cab there, just make sure they put the meter on, which normally is not a problem up there.
OP
Will do mate !! I hate taxi drivers at airports and have learnt the hard way to get everything sorted before I close my door - meter, route, toll charges etc.limbo:
