Yes, I agree that one never knows. One just need to arrive just after a couple of A380's disgorge their passengers, and things can clog up rapidly. Throw in a Chinese tour group and all bets are off. But, based on your one bad out of two and my six good out of six, I still consider the odds are in favor of a quicker pass-through at immigration, regardless of where you sat on the airplane.

When was the last time you "arrived and the wait has been over one hour"? I've been through BKK six times so far this year, and the new layout in the regular immigration halls appears to have improved the overall flow and the gate-to-curb experience. Worst-case, I have got to the baggage claim easily less than 20 minutes after getting off the plane. Better to reserve the Priority arrivals for the senior, disabled, pregnant traveler who really need it with the perks of the 'front-of-the-bus' experience of Business/First travel limited to the 'bus'. When one pays a premium to an airline for a premium travel experience, don't expect it to be extended through immigration and customs.

Pidok Sooksawas: From High-Flyer to Thailand’s First Gentleman
NanLaew replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
"First Lady" and "First Gentlemen" applies to the spouse or partner of a President, never a lowly Prime Minister. K. Pidok is just another bloke. -
So do thousands of Americans charged with DUI. A guy I worked with plead down his three DUI's three times. The last one cost him around 8000 bucks at the end of the day. But that's the marvelous thing about justice and the courts in the USA. If you don't want to do the time, just pay a bigger fine but make sure you have enough left over for your lawyer.

For you maybe. For others, there's https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.36CD8J8 Can you spot the difference?

...compared to a potted plant, yes I agree, he's very eloquent.

When did Walz correct his war zone lies? A few weeks ago. Wow... your record has been broken for that long already?
-
Maybe because it was a big fat nothingburger in 2006, there was nothing to speak up about? In the meantime, you're welcome to keep clutching at straws.
-
And your record sounds broken.

No, his 2006 campaign staff were the ones making stuff up. And Trump is... Hell yeah. I got deferred adjudication with a whole slew of community work and other stuff that I never carried out before they dismissed my DUI because the court's docket was too full of more important stuff. While the Right is this icon of moral rectitude?

British family struggles with father’s funeral costs in Thailand
NanLaew replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
The British Embassy does everything that it is obligated to do for their citizens. Absolutely correct. I think the whiney malcontents are upset that they no longer get invited for croquet, cucumber sandwiches and Pimm's No. 1 Cup on the lawn at the Ambassador's residence anymore. -

But aren't your bar girl sweethearts pretty much the same? -
Chaikasem to be Nominated as New Thai PM at Special House Meeting

And a mere 24-hours later, jobs for the (quite young) girls. -
I am a bar girl basher, in general poorly educated women forced into prostitution to earn a living which the government turns a blind eye to instead of trying to improve the education system and generate real jobs. Hold on a minute. Aren't you supposed to be on a horse?

Paetongtarn Shinawatra to be Nominated as Thailand's New PM

What's your problem? Bananas are good for you. -
If the OP is working remotely and not a tourist (?), the new Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) is a perfect fit. This new five-year visa will grant a period of stay of up to 180 days per visit, with multiple re-entries, to digital nomads, remote workers, and those participating in activities such as traditional Thai martial arts (Muay Thai), Thai cooking classes, sports training, medical treatment, etc..

Jobs for the (very old) boys. -
So only Trump has the right to over inflate his... achievements and bang on about how great he has been and will be again? Is there some pantheon of previous Veeps and their stellar performances during their 4-years of waiting in the wings, not rocking the boat and fundamentally getting recognized for "being there, just in case" that makes you think Harris should be more forthcoming?
-
The world didn't stop turning when the US elected their first black POTUS with Obama so electing their first black female POTUS with Harris, apart from being without precedent, will be all rather unremarkable.

Fried eggs, Swedish meatballs with gravy, mashed potato and jalapeño kimchi. Bacon and baked beans is so passé.
