Well finally. Somehow this year morning rush traffic has become unbearable. Priority security line zigzags through the entire lobby and people cross it by dragging their suitcases and bumping into those queuing. And one quarter of the people in line are frustrated when they grt to the entry point because they didn't notice they're in the wrong line for priority access only.

I'm sure WDF will find a way to put a shop up there as well. I hope they will install escalators there. (is there? I haven't even looked...)

Sort of related to the topic
Lounges are out of the question for sure but...can I use priority check-in and priority security while being a AY+ Plat but I'm flying with SAS?
I believe no, but just checking if I could work around this
EDIT: OH...just read the post from Kauppias above Asked & answered.

But flying SK means you depart from the lower end of T1, right? The T1 security is rarely congested, not in comparison to T2 at least.

What we truly need is a entirely new priority security/immigration pathway, marked with red below.
