How is the flow of traffic managed at Swampy? Are there parts of the day that have less people coming through than others generally speaking? I've noticed over the years that long haul flights from Europe tend to arrive early morning, when from my experience, the airport is often rammed. I flew in in the afternoon earlier this year and there was barely anyone there, but that was during low season.

 

I ask this because for the first time ever I will fly in on a Friday evening. The person picking me up keeps asking how long it will take to get through but since its so near to xmas, I think its going to be very busy but then I don't know how many flights arrive in the evening. I think there are less than in the morning.

 

Any thoughts on when most flights arrive at swampy or is it so swamped its always busy during high season?

Flew in on a Sunday afternoon 3 weeks ago.

Fight arrived 4 pm by the time i cleared immigration 5.15

Airport did not seem unusually busy but immigration not fully staffed hence long lines

If I'm meeting someone I aim to be at the airport meeting point 45 mins after the allocated landing time, my visitors have never been waiting for me ????

I figured about that but as mentioned, I have never flown in on a friday evening before.
