I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Suvarnabhumi Airport during my travels, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I stepped foot inside, I was greeted with an atmosphere of cleanliness and order that immediately set the tone for a fantastic journey.

First and foremost, the cleanliness of the airport was remarkable. Every corner, from the restrooms to the waiting areas, sparkled with immaculate upkeep. It's evident that the staff takes great pride in maintaining a pristine environment for travelers.

Organization is key in any airport, and Suvarnabhumi Airport excels in this aspect. The layout is intuitively designed, making navigation a breeze. Clear signage and helpful staff members ensured that I never felt lost or confused during my time there.

Speaking of staff, I was consistently impressed by their friendliness and willingness to assist. Whether it was providing directions or offering recommendations for dining options, their warmth and professionalism made my experience truly memorable.

And let's talk about the food! Suvarnabhumi Airport boasts an impressive array of dining choices, catering to every palate. From local delicacies to international cuisine, there's something to satisfy every craving. Plus, the quality of the food surpassed my expectations for airport dining.

One aspect of the airport that pleasantly surprised me was the presence of Masjids inside. As a traveler who values cultural inclusivity, I was delighted to see such thoughtful accommodations for Muslim travelers. It's a testament to Suvarnabhumi Airport's commitment to catering to the diverse needs of its visitors.

I had an okay shopping experience here. The lady who helped me pick out perfume was very helpful and kind. She is mostly why I’m even giving this rating 2 stars. But in other areas of the shop I was looking at, some of the workers I felt were really pushing products towards me I really did not want or need and kept trying to get me to buy them even when I politely declined.

In the make up area I was looking at lip balm and the lady wasn’t very helpful. She just stared at me as I was trying to decide which one I wanted and anytime I would reach out to pick an item she insisted getting the box for me which I found a bit odd as she did not communicate with me much. She would not really allow me to handle and observe the items for myself. When I finally did decide on one she handed me a more beat up version of the lip balm box which I didn’t think too much of but once arriving home and opening up the lip balm it looked as if it had been open and there were little black flakes and dust particles on top of the balm. This was highly disappointing as I can’t go back to try and ask to exchange it. I just ended up scraping off the top layer so that I can use it.

Overall, This has been one of the more negative duty free airport shopping experiences I’ve had compared to other international airports I’ve shopped at. The prices are either the same as you would get in your home country with the taxes added or a bit higher. Even with the “discount” I felt as though I was not getting the best deals here. I opted out of buying any food, candy, snacks, or tea as the prices for these were higher than you’d find in the city even in more...
