Is there a good/slow time for immigration to arrive by plane in Bangkok. I have many options, early morning through late evening.

TLDR : Answer Summary
There isn't a definitive answer to when the best time to arrive at Bangkok immigration is, as wait times can vary significantly depending on the number of flights arriving simultaneously. Personal experiences suggest early morning arrivals (around 1-3 AM or 6 AM) often have shorter wait times, although it can also depend on the airlines' schedules. Some travelers reported quick processing even during busier periods, while others recommend purchasing a fast track entry pass for quicker access. Ultimately, factors like flight times and busy periods influence the wait, making it somewhat unpredictable.
The point is that there are many variables that can help /hinder your progress in any air travel-Travel has taught me to be relaxed and relaxed about little delays . We all get there in the end ....
I usually fly overnight and arrive early in at Suva - One time We landed and then we waited for the connecting step /Service arm.I got through Immigration very quickly -Then we all waited for 45 minutes for the Luggage t
When I arrived I was expecting the worst. So many people. It looked chaotic but they had it all under control and it moved fast 10minutes. Baggage about 20 minutes
There is no answer to this question. On any given day it’s is just purely how many flights land just around the time yours does.
You could check the various apps that give you flight arrivals boards for any given day and choose a time that looks good, but for various reasons like delays and weather or whatnot you could still find yourself with 5 flights just before you.
It’ll be 10 minutes up until around an hour to get through. Pay for the fast track if you want. Although as someone else posted they got through quicker not doing so. Toss a coin. It’ll be heads 10 minutes or tails 1 hour. Or wait was that the other way around?
Most days are the same, because most airlines schedule daily flights or the same number of flights each day to Bangkok. So then it becomes a case of what time of day you're arriving. Early mornings tend to be fairly quiet, then comes the mid morning rush, then it's calmer again around lunchtime and gets busy again mid afternoon through to early evening.
what difference does it make if it takes 10 minutes or 30 minutes ??? except if you have a connecting flight . today I waited 10 minutes at 9'30 . sometimes I've been waiting 45 minutes at 6'30 . but also sometimes 5 minutes at 6'30 .
so you get there and see . otherwise ask your crystal ball
