BANGKOK, Aug 23 -- After long delays in construction and several test runs, Suvarnabhumi Airport's Link begins commercial services Monday (23rd August, 2010) with special discount fares offered until the end of 2010, shortening travel times for inbound and outbound air travelers as well as easing arrivals and departures compared to existing airport transport.
