Flew in July 1 at approximately 3:30pm. I get fast tracked due to my visa status. The "general" immigration queue was extremely backed up. However, this is not a immigration issue. The airlines scheduled their arrives at the same time. In the past when I arrived later, early evening or early morning, no lines at all except for my plane. You don't build out a check point for a 3-4 hour period of time when it's going to be practically empty the rest of the time. My advice, look at your arrival time. If arriving mid afternoon, consider buying the fast track. I'm unsure if there is an arrival bulge during the morning hours.

Service we’ll see how it goes <br>Thanks Tim for your always helpful advice 🙏

I guess its a bit of luck for everyone - or like someone mentioned - maybe its about arrival time? I have been coming to Thailand for past 13years. Never had a problem with very long queues (like 4h). The quickest ones were probably about 20/30min. The longest one maybe 1h. I ve been coming mostly either directly from Europe or through Doha. Perhaps it got worst with the latest immigration changes? Last September - definitely less than 1h. That all said still very good advice & I will definitely consider next time.

I have arrived on international flights at all times of the day or night and haven’t had an issue. Now with my LTR visa I just go through in no more than 10 minutes. One hangup now could be the Digital Arrival Card. Make sure you do this online before you fly.
