. . . and from a 1999 trip:

"SK from CPH was late because they didn’t have the flight log for the plane -- some bright spark had left it in Stockholm and we sat on the tarmack for 40 minutes while they got special permission to leave without it/get a replacement. As a result we arrived late in LHR which caused additional problems. LH/SK were unable to issue all boarding passes when I checked at the start of my flights in GVA.

Once at LHR, I had to go out through security even though I was in transit in the same terminal. I probably should have gone out through arrivals through regular customs and back through regular security and I would have had less anxiety. Anyway, one of the security personnel got me to jump the queue (hence this post) bypassing lots of passengers.

I got to AC check-in and they just redirected me back to the boarding gates where a buggy was waiting. They whisked me off to gate 29 where AC had my boarding passes prepared -- I was the last one on the plane.

Sure glad to have been able to jump the security queue (with permission of course)!
