by YYZC2 "If your departure is anything inside of ~40 mins, he/she will pull back a divider and send you through to the "front of the line" express lane. I check in late now as a matter of course for any US flight."
This is nothing to brag about. Why can't you try and come early like everyone else? If everyone adopts this selfish tecnique, soon the epress queue won't work and more people will miss their flights, even you.
