Not at the airport itself, but nearby (5 minutes walk) there is a very good exchanger, the exchange rate with the airport differed by 1.5-2 baht. In Patong, the course is worse everywhere.

We flew with a tour, but stayed here. On the bus, they gave a SIM card for 1 day of the Internet. Then you can buy a SIM card at any 7eleven store, but they were expensive, so they bought it at the AIS store. 299 baht per month, unlimited internet. And there are a lot of exchangers everywhere, and it is better to change bills of $ 100, so the rate is more profitable. The airport is not the best exchange rate, but for the first time, if necessary, you can change it.

Change dollars for a taxi right at the airport (50 is enough), take SIM cards there. Exchangers at every turn. There is a small difference with the festival. But as for me, you will spend + time on a taxi to the festival. In the exchanger on the spot, change 200 dollars for expenses, and then you can drive it to the shopping center on a bike if you take it.

You will see SIM cards right at the airport, do not miss it) after passport control there will be counters. In the same place, for small expenses, you will see a green exchanger. There, you can change 50-100 dollars for small expenses, and then so far the best course has been found in the central festival. Mall. Ask there and tell you where they are. As far as I remember, on the 4th floor, right up the escalator, if you climb, you can immediately rest against it. Well, or they will tell you. There's plus or minus everywhere.
