Catching up on FT post honeymoon - we found DEL T3 to be an absolute breeze for both arrival and departure.

On arrival, we were landside with our driver within 30 minutes of doors opening - with checked baggage. No queues at immigration (arriving on BA257 - in First so first off).

Departing (again in First), got the special services escort from check in to security, and security to the "lounge", lounge to plane. Fairly short queues in fast track at security. The Coffee Bean wasn't particularly great as an interim lounge - limited newspaper selection, somewhat unappetising food (the chocolate covered croissant was a particular low point) and a very odd menu - no orange juice and most importantly for the BA board, no fizz! (hard stuff is limited to white/red wine and whisky...).

As a side observation, our flights were very quiet both ways - four of us in First on the outbound, and only the two of us in First on the way home.
