Goa Airport fast track for business?

Hi

Just deciding what to book and the Jet Airways fare says its a business class and wondered if there was fast track security at Goa Airport that would be included in this or if its simply lounge access and a business checkin counter?

Many thanks

Business Class check-in counter, yes.

No fast track at security.

Average lounge. It is just a reserved section at the back of the Port restaurant. You get a laminated card with some food and (non-alcoholic) beverages choices, and you can pick one in each category.

Doesn't look like they have a flight on the day I need! Seems some airlines fly from the T1 in BOM and others T2. Is either better / quicker to generally get thru security?

T2 is better by miles in every comparable way. If you are arriving by an international flight, they all operate from T2. Domestically, Air India, Jet and Vistara (all FSC) operate from T2, while all others (LCC) operate from T1.
