I've come across a number of options when trawling the web from mention of "red caps" to "fast track services".

What makes the most sense assuming we want to spend the minimum time queuing (and if possible get our covid tests sorted at the airport, rather than paying for them to happen at the hotel) ?

Thank you in advance
The immigration process deatils - https://www.visitbarbados.org/covid-...uidelines-2020
Red caps are baggage handlers
Fast track is a chargeable cut the queue service - https://www.fivestarfasttrack.com/
Adults need a negative covid certificate to land into barbados ( see first link ). Test done in the three days before arrival.
A second test is required 4/5 days after first test at hotel (chargeable) or local polyclinic (free)
Passengers quarantine until results of second test are recieved

NB some pax have reported queues of up to 3 hours at the aiport on arrival in recent weeks.
