    They just need to add dedicated immigration lines at Arrival/Departure for Americans.   Not sure why we have to wait with those other foreign people.

  • Don't hold your breath. What they might propose and how they act/practice are two different things.  The unreasonable and confounding Thai bureaucratic mindset usually misses the boat.

    Let's hope it speeds things up as well as hoping all immigration booths are up and running at peak times.  My daughters will be flying in to visit soon and the last thing they want after a two day fli

Back room work for the boys, out front and centre for the girls?

I came through yesterday afternoon. The airport was packed with many arriving flights coming out of the gates as I trudged along from gate F6.

First immigration was busy but moving and showing an 11 minute wait. The sign said the other one was 8 minutes. I had Fast Track access so was through in two minutes. A few minutes later the carousel started moving and I had my bag within 10 minutes. From exiting the plane to exiting a busy airport was under 30 minutes.

The taxi queue was busy though and I had a 20 minute wait for a "short ride" taxi.

Those horrendous immigration queues are very rare and generally caused by several delayed planes arriving at once. Never experienced it in hundreds of entries. They definitely need to do better on the taxi front though.

It's never been organized or directed very well [for ages]......don't expect it ever will.

Talking the good talk and good intended rhetoric is one thing, but putting such into practice is another altogether - especially from a Thai authority mindset.
