I flew Lisbon to London last Friday and was in Club. I did not use the check in desks as checked in with I phone but the security lane was loong. Having said that they had a green channel which was a bit shorter but did not use it as did not see it initially. Maybe it was for business class passengers but as I did not pass by the desk I couldn't know. The air conditioning in both the terminal and the Blue lounge used by BA wasn't working properly so I wouldn't spend too much time at the airport.




QUOTE=Flyerbunny;18290114]We are booked on BA0501 from Lisbon Terminal 1 to LHR at 11.00 on Saturday May 19th 2012.

I have heard horror stories about how long it takes to check in and get through security.

Has anyone had any recent experiences?

We were planning to get to the airport for approx. 0930 but in view of the above I'm wondering if this will be early enough.

Don't really want to get there any earlier if it's not necessary as want to enjoy breakfast at the hotel!

Any advice much appreciated.[/QUOTE]
