hmm. I do not know about that. All I know is that at British airports incoming pax are separated from departing pax. Immigration and the next security check take time. I had to travel a lot to Vienna, Amsterdam, Brussels the recent days. For the purpose of a quick turn over as pax Vienna, Amsterdam, Brussels seem more appropriate, because when leaving the plane you immediately are in the departure area. Did an unvoluntary mileage run yesterday. Upon arrival in BRU, I was informed a meeting was canceled because our partner had H1N1-flu. My assistant was so kind to rebook me on the next flight home, which was the same machine I came in with. So I stayed where I was and waited to re-board. When the FA saw me she was a bit puzzled and actualz asked if I were on a Mileage Run or laundring money . I told her that I had the hots for belgian chocolates and wanted to buy the good stuff
