It’s December 2017. Songtaews seem to ask from 300 to 400 baht per one way to the airport. We tried to lower the price and after some walk and many refuses we lowered to 250 baht (2 people). No way to get a tuktuk or a shared songtaew, at least not later than 18h. The motorbikes offered to take us for 150 bath per person, which was the worst possible option. Shuttle bus is still 90 baht/person. I don’t know where did you take the info for 2016, if prices are rising so fast in a few years Thailand will be as expensive as Europe…
You can walk out to the main road and wave down a songthaew or motorbike. The songthaews on the main road only charge me 20 baht that day. To get to airport take motorbike if you don’t have big luggage. The songthaew stop to go to the airport is in front of river hotel near the river. I was told my local people 30 baht. I’m taking it tomorrow. I can’t upload the pictures of the songthaew station. Yeah but it located at The River View hotel for location how to get there

Finally I am at Krabi airport. I went to River View hotel and there were song thews waiting. I just asked how much to airport and he asked 50 THB and waiting time 15 mins.
While I was waiting on the road there were a few motorcyclists waving their hands. When I approached them they started asking where I wanted to go. I said Krabi airport and I have 50 THB. He smiled and took me to airport.
Apparently he dropped me in front of the airport entrance. So there is basically another option available for solo travellers, which is a motorcycle.
You don’t have too many choices.
The Airport Bus is around 90 baht from Krabi town, but you need to get yourself from where you are staying to it’s nearest pick up point (ask your front desk.
Song theaws will get you close to the airport for around 50 to 100 baht, but they can not enter the airport so will drop you at the highway and you walk in.
Taxis and hotel shuttles are in the several hundred baht range, which I suppose you have already discovered.
