It would never be my first choice of accommodation, but sleeping in Bangkok Airport is nowhere near as uncomfortable or impossible as I expected. It helps to have a 'borrowed' Thai Airways blanket and pillow. It's straightforward - stake out the comfiest row of seats you can find, use your blanket (or fancy blindfold if you've remembered it, I didn't, the one time I've needed it!) to block out the 24hour bright fluorescent lighting and conk out. Occasionally the mini earthquakes caused by a bus going by wake you up, but a few minutes of piped 'Amazing Grace', 'Greensleeves' or even the odd bit of Copland lulls you back to snooze. On your own and wake up needing the loo? No worries, a trustworthy-looking couple in your Airport Bench Hotel community are more than happy to keep an eye on your bags while you nip off.
Time for check-in!
