If you're going to refer to me, I'd appreciate it if you at least took the trouble to be accurate.
This is exactly what I wrote:
A quick question:
Next Thursday 23/04 I am booked to travel HBO on BA1488, departing T5 at 16:15. However, for various work-related reasons, it may be that I get a call around 14:00 telling me to tear up my Glasgow ticket and stay in London...
Before this came up, my plan was to get to the airport early and work from the FLounge for a few hours. However, if I do get the call, I don't then want to find I have to queue for an hour to get out of the departures area again...
So, could anyone advise how much hassle it would be to return landside once through T5 Security, if I absolutely had to ?
Thanks in advance !
I was suggesting nothing (I was merely asking for others' experiences) and I did not "forget" about transit passengers.
Do you write for the Daily Mail in your spare time by any chance ?
