Sticker or no, when I flew out of MAN at the beginning of last month, the T2 security people were only allowing wheelchair PAX & those with babies in pushchairs through the fast track security lane (I checked-in at the desk, showed them the fast-track invite & still got refused access,as I didn't fit into either of the above categories).

AF can't be blamed for this, as they did provide all the necessary documentation, but it's not good when you've paid for all the Affaires perks & they decide that getting the charter flights out is the airport's main priority.

Surprisingly, everything worked perfectly when I got to CDG & I was able to move from 2E - the 2F Salon in less than 1/2, on foot; even with a load of late connecting PAX for a Caraccas flight being rushed to the front of the queue.^
