Hi all,

Its been a long time since I flew Emirates at this time of the day, is the airport always this quiet!?!

Flying back to LHR in Y (and being silver) thought i'd get here really early to get through checkin that i expected to be manic, get an exit row seat, get my egate renewed and get to the silver lounge for a quick smoke.

Arrived at the airport around 11:20 (flight was at 14:15 but now delayed) 20 minutes later (after doing all of the above, and some duty free I am in the lounge!)

Is it always this quite at this time??? Normally I queue longer for checkin and egate in the business section!!

BTW anyone in the 122 lounge? Going to be a long wait!!!
