I have been successful getting a sticker from the ground staff when travelling on A3/LH/LX upon arrival for the 'special line' but it is not a given.
The regular lines vary greatly I find from a couple of hundred people to easily over a thousand, late at night IMHO.
Hope that helps.
There's nothing 'partly' true in my post. As a TK Elite, OP can use any line except for those for Turkish citizens. What's partly true about that?
