Rew rew! Not just Don Muang – Suvarnabhumi hit by long immigration queues

BANGKOK: — Following last weekend’s five hour immigration queue debacle Bangkok’s main airport is giving Don Muang a run for its money.

Facebook users posted about the bad situation at Suvarabhumi and a Thai visa reporter on the scene can confirm that matters were some of  the worst in memory.

#PChang went on Facebook to say that both airports were suffering shortages of immigration staff. Unmanned counters meant queues going back “tens of meters” reported Sanook.

Tourists were shaking their heads and grumbling about the situation.

A Thaivisa reporter leaving the country early this morning reported huge queues after midnight. Only about half of the desks were manned as the queues snaked around the area causing bottlenecks at the downward escalators.

Though it seemed that those who were present had been told to speed up their act.
