Here are photos of Suvarnabhumi Airport upon my arrival in Bangkok earlier this month. Here’s the first set of photos taken upon my arrival at the international terminal.

Moving walkway/ Walkalator

Artwork along the way to immigrations

Directional signs are quite important for an airport of this size

More directions and a map

Another artwork

 Digital/electronic information board

Information board on aircraft arrivals and departures

Entry to the immigrations area where photographs and video are not allowed. I dare not be caught violating this rule in a foreign country.

Baggage claim area

Information on which carousel to go to pick-up your luggage are on this board. There are so many arrivals at the airport and so many carousels so its important to look it up for reference and direction.

More artwork, this time at the baggage claim area

Luggage going around on the carousel

Here are more artworks – I think this is a good idea to showcase the country’s artists at its main gateway. Perhaps Philippine airports should also make a similar effort? I recall Mactan Cebu International Airport featuring a local artist Boy Kiamko’s work at the terminal.
