Porters take your bags, security screening is quick and easy and check in likewise in a totally separate area to the main throngs. Once you have your boarding pass you do then have to rejoin the main terminal to go through Emigration and into the main departures area but overall it was a much more pleasant experience than the main terminal itself. Note that this only applies if you are starting your journey in CMB and not if in transit.

Many thanks for this info. Despite numerous trips thru the region, have never seen this. Is there some signage for this as your driving towards the main terminal? Will try and snag some pics of the same on my next thru the region.
