Best going to the very end of the airport and thru the 3rd security mate All done now and flight delayed. Talking to a guy who works here - during covid they sacked 80% of security and baggage handling staff, went to hire them back and they had all taken other jobs elsewhere. 3 lanes open out of 12.

Walk past the one near the Heineken bar, then there is another near the crown lounge. Go past that and keep walking and follow all the way round to the right as if you're going to another terminal then there is another security and passport control to the left. Once thru you need to walk miles back to the baggage hall Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
