TL;DR
To save time on arrival at Hurghada Airport, complete the immigration card on the plane, as airlines often distribute it before landing. At the visa area, check every bank counter: queues may form only at the first two windows.
At Hurghada Airport, do not automatically join the first visa queue you see: the first two bank counters can be busy while the other windows may have only one or two people waiting.
Immigration cards are often handed out on board shortly before descent. Fill yours in before landing so you do not lose time completing it beside the visa counters.
If the form is distributed on the flight, keep a pen handy and complete it in advance. This can get you through the arrivals formalities faster than passengers filling out paperwork at the airport.
