This is simply not the time to cut corners and be there as late as possible. You'd better be there as early as possible, there are quite a few airlines who don't pay for priority lanes (such as Oneworld member BA...)
Thanks. I'm flying El Al to TLV, which is why I can't check in online (they have a security routine they do at the check-in desks). When I said *G, I just mean that I have Star Alliance Gold Status.
I'm fine with going early, but hate to go just to wait in line for the check in desk to open

I'm mostly concerned about clearing times for security and passport control.
So there is no business class line for security?
