Thanks for the link. I'm even more surprised that they have designated Monday the 9th as a peak day for both departures and arrivals.
As for those queues at immigrations, they could just stop checking the passports of departing pax leaving Schengen, and use the resources to speed up things for arriving pax. Yeah, I know, I know, the law says . . . etc. But making departing pax run the KMar gauntlet is not an immutable law of nature. There are countries that don't do it, without descending into chaos and anarchy.
