Registration required to connect — look for the sign-in page after joining the network.

Thailand eSIMs from AIS, dtac/True, Airalo, or Holafly are cheap and easy to activate on arrival; True and AIS counters in the Suvarnabhumi arrivals hall also sell physical SIMs for those who prefer it.

Insider tip

The free wifi caps out at 3 hours and needs the 'Sawasdee by AOT' app plus an email sign-up to activate — install the app before you land so you're not doing it on slow airport data.

WiFi network names and session limits change frequently. Verify current details at the airport information desk or official website.

eSIM for Thailand

Skip the SIM card queue. Activate a data plan before you land and connect the moment you arrive in Bangkok.
