Hotels There are many hotels close to NIST International School where the conference will be held. FIGT has negotiated attractive rates at 5 of them, representing a range of price points. Check out the map below for their locations. Download a summary of the details here. BOOK EARLY! Room availability is LIMITED. If you're interested in sharing a room, you can connect with other conference attendees in our closed Facebook group (conference registration required to join group). Airport Transfer There are several options if you are arriving via Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) including taxi service and an airport rail link. Details are on the airport website. Some hotels offer private transfers (see our hotel summary page). If you decide to take mass transit, refer to the map below. Take the Sky Train (Airport Rail Link – ARL) to Makkasan station and then walk across the raised bridge (approx. 5 minutes) to the MRT station (Phetchaburi). Travel one stop and exit at Sukhumvit station. You are then at the Terminal 21 Shopping centre where nearly all the hotels have tuk tuks. We suggest you contact your hotel in advance to ask where and when they can pick you up.  Thailand has very strict rules for bringing prescription drugs into the country. Please check on this government website to see if they apply to you.
