For an international departure I'd leave (step in to a taxi) at 19:00. I am overly cautious and have never missed a flight.
Lately there have been a lot of reports of a shortage of Immigration Officers and lengthy waits exiting the country. Wait times of up to 60 minutes have been reported and some have missed their flights.
I can confirm this. On departure a couple of weeks ago, around 4 p.m.,
we had to wait a good hour or so to get through immigration. Flight did
not leave until 10 p.m. so it wasn't a problem. But highly recommended
to arrive at the airport plenty of time ahead of departure.
