Via the ARL Hua Mak station
The main reason to know about this station is the pedestrian bridge. On the map, the route from here to Hua Mak on the MRT line (yellow) looks like a long walk, but in reality it's only about 400 meters and less than ten minutes on foot – all under cover. This makes this station one of the most convenient transfer points in eastern Bangkok if you want to travel to Suvarnabhumi or Phaya Thai.
The station itself is elevated, large, and well-organized, and generally clean. The trains, however, are a different story, and the exteriors of the carriages are so frequently described as dirty that it's clearly not an isolated incident. The bigger issue, though, is maintenance: ticket machines are out of order for weeks at a time, and the elevators don't work. If you're pulling a suitcase or traveling with someone who can't climb stairs, you should expect a broken elevator, rather than simply anticipating one.

These heights were built so that we could get a bird's-eye view and dedicate our commute to the sensation of vertigo.
Although it looks quite far from the Hua Mak MRT station (yellow line), the actual distance is only about 400 meters. A pedestrian bridge leads to the station in less than 10 minutes on foot. The Hua Mak ARL is spacious and easy to navigate. From there, you can easily reach the airport or the Phaya Thai railway station.
Not maintained. Ticket machines have been broken for weeks. Elevators out of service. All photos were taken on the same morning.
