Update

On arrival at HKT we were first off and at immigration in no time, no queues or backlog, bags off pdq.
On departure this afternoon, we saw a horrendous queue for the pre-departure hall security and hearts sank. There are though 3-4 different entry points, it seems all the taxi drivers direct you to the first one. Go to the 3rd or 4th entry point and we were through in 5 minutes. They are very hot on batteries and "power banks"...

Long lines for check in, we were in J so cut through the Y line as there was no easy way of getting to the J check in else....I'm still removing daggers from my back!
Immigration and further security a breeze - the current Thai temporary lounge is just a cordoned off area and very cramped with spotty wifi.
