It corroborates what I said.

that some had delays and some didn't. - not quite what you said was it? Or are you going to keep lying.. again

 

[noseall]

that some had delays

Correct.
It's what I said.

not quite what you said was it?

Yes. I said low capacity airports will unlikely be affected (much) and even mentioned my experience at Innsbruck. I also said busy airports would.

I don't lie.

 

[noseall]

I do if it means I have to queue for an extra hour, when going through passport control. Fortunately, we have never had much issue with Innsbruck as it's a low capacity airport.

No lies.

 

[noseall]

It will be even longer with the new ID rules.

Correct, no lies.

Lanzarote. Two hours from getting off the plane to leaving the airport. Absolute nightmare. Queue after queue. No one knows what they are doing. Not enough staff to deal with it all.

I recently flew into Krakow with my youngest son. We spent two hours, 10 minutes waiting to get through passport control. We had no access to water; getting to a toilet was difficult. The border control personnel were just sitting gossiping which inevitably slowed the process.

Arrived in Tenerife South airport to join a snaking queue, took us two hours to get through border security. Adults could use the machines but families are forced to join long queues with no system of arriving planes joining the queue from different areas in the airport. Insane!

The new EES is a totally unacceptable affront to UK people given queuing times. We landed at Zurich airport last Saturday and had to wait three hours in passport queues. This has been rolled out without any thought or capacity increase in most European airports.

Only UK for Now

We travelled to Barcelona last week. It took about 90 minutes to get through passport control and this was just for one plane. They only had two staff on the desk. Returning from Spain, there was no queue either side of the journey.

Perhaps chicken biker thinks these people were lying?

 

[motorbiking]

Correct, no lies.

and once the new system settles in - back to normal - probably quicker. Nothing to worry about.

 

[motorbiking]

‘If’
Have you seen the new rules? It’s bad enough now, for Brits in busy airports. It will affect transfers and appointments when the new rules kick in.

It really wont.

 

[noseall]

and once the new system settles in - back to normal

I don't doubt that. Normal = 3/4hr additional wait times for Brits.

Joy.

could always try the Caribbean, they have a similar process and it takes 5-10 minutes.

WTF has that to do with the fact that potentially 150,000 British Army veterans are deined a British Passport?

Or are you unaware of what you posted?

I wasn't replying to your nonsense

4 planes landed one after the other?
Well that's unusual for a busy airport.
Especially a busy airport that operates 2 runways, one for take off, and the other for landing.

There are 4 operational terminals at Heathrow.
Planes are parked up in different areas, so usually people from one plane get to passport control when the previous ones have gone.
Sometimes things don't go as planned and long queues form at passport control.
It's a fine tuned logistic operation; it happens out here in the real world.
Nothing to do with your institution.

 

[warey4life]

Are you that man?

No, I'm not an inbred Reform type.

 

[King Billy]

There are 4 operational terminals at Heathrow.

And two runways. HAve you not heard about the proposal for a third runway? It's only been going on for years.

so usually people from one plane get to passport control when the previous ones have gone.

Planes are landing at 90 second intervals. Do the passengers get whisked away like magic?
How many time have you flown in and out of Heathrow?

Sometimes things don't go as planned and long queues form at passport control.

Well I never heard that before, despite there being several threads about it.

It's a fine tuned logistic operation;

So are most airports.

Nothing to do with your institution.

Is this the institution on the border between France and England?

Stop embarrassing yourself, Himmy.
We already know you're retarded.
