Tip for the driver

[christianpfc]

I've booked a car from BKK to Pattaya for 1200Bt. Given that I'm watching my satang this trip, what would be a fair tip for the driver? I would normally tip 200Bt. Would 100 be ok? Don't want to start my holiday with bad karma.

Watching Satang, but taking taxi from airport to Pattaya because you don't want to bother with the bus, or get to Pattaya a few minutes quicker? And then asking what amount you should tip?

Like so many of your posts, this one makes little sense.

I have never ever tipped a long distance taxi driver in Thailand. The price they quote is the price they get.

BF is usually quite generous with (my) money and has also never seen fit to tip them

Agreed, no tip is necessary. Joe can save the money for his birthday party.

I will tip 200 baht. I had one driver start playing with my hand, is that some sort of signal?
