I am as well-prepared as I think I can be (and I have no mobility issues, so if needs be can run) thanks to the advice in the Wiki. However, is there anything I need to be aware of at the moment - e.g. disruptions/building work within the terminal, etc? And if it looks like we're running late or hitting the MCT, how likely am I to be met at the aircraft by QR staff? And what's the procedure if either I'm not, or if it's clear I'm not going to make it (e.g. if we're 25+ minutes late)?
What cabin class are you travelling in? In J and F you'll be met and brought to the next gate if your connection is really tight.
