Last time I went to our Lofts' place, EasyJet was two thirds passengers, one third hat boxes. Cheap enough to pay for a seat for hats.

Moderators Zico Posted May 26, 2022 Moderators Share Posted May 26, 2022 kin ell off to Rhodes on Fri 24th June sounds like its totally random and luck as to whether there are big fuck off queues or not going to end up going 5 hours early or something, and then getting stuck in queues only to find that 2 hours before would have been fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Spider Posted May 26, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2022 I’m getting there 2 hours before. Sounds like they fast track anyway if it’s close to your flight time, so that works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter fatolive Posted May 26, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2022 I’ve just come back , T1 last Sunday for a 2pm flight, arrived 11:30 and was through security in 20 minutes back in last night at 6:30 , 10 mins through passport control, 15 mins wait for my bag that had ti be checked on due to being too big for the return even though it was the same bag I brought out 🤷♂️ didn’t seem busy at all though . Second time in as many months I’ve been at the airport, not seen any queues or issues to be honest . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're off to Nashville on 7th June, still need a real time test for USA. We're flying business so hopefully should be able to skip many of the queues for check in and security. Will still be a bitch getting through Manchester & Heathrow though no doubt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
