You are probably better off with just hand luggage as well Waltz cos I read on another forum that baggage handlers are also going on strike  |

It's the truckers that worry me - not the luggage handlers... |

I've been reading on the other forum that airport coach drivers and taxi drivers are also joining the blockade tomorrow and the only way to Pattaya is to pre book a motorcyc taxi to meet you at the airport. Obviously they are able to skilfully manoeuvre around the road block.
I also read that the going rate has been fixed at 3000 Baht which seems reasonable to me given the circumstances  |

Yeah, they are laying on bicycles for you to use which then have to be left at a collection point near the Nana Hotel...that's a good idea  |
