Report on leaving Thailand from DMK 5/7/23

Hopefully this will be of use to other travelers.

The airport is much less crowded than pre Covid times.

Wait time for check in at Air Asia: 20 minutes.

Wait time for luggage X-ray: 1 minute.

Wait time for immigration: 13 minutes.

Wait time for security screening: 5 minutes.

My flight is at 0905.

I arrived at the airport 0600.

In this case, I have two hours to relax and eat breakfast.
