If you don't have coins for the Bangkok Skytrain ticket vending machines then you might have to join a line of other people waiting for change.
Ticket vending machines at BTS
Easy to follow instructions for using the skytrain ticket vending machines. These machines accept 10 baht and 5 baht coins. So if you want to save some time make sure you have some of these coins in your pocket or purse.

You might like to buy a Smart Pass if you plan on making a few trips. The Skytrain BTS Smart Pass plastic card ticket (the size of a credit card) stays in your hand. You just wave your Smart Pass over a disk on top of the old machine, the gate opens and you keep walking.
A quiet day at Bangkok Skytrain station.
No Skytrain crowds today.
