And while you all ponder your flights my wife is still struggling to get a visa. It doesn’t help that the current processing times seem to be around the application window (i.e. you need to apply the earliest you possibly can to have a chance of getting a visa for when you wanted to travel…)
We had a planned trip to arrive in that period to BHX, affected, that got pulled due to a visa not being gaurenteed to be ready within the planned travel dates.
So perhaps with that in mind at least immigration may be easier workloads (i.e. not visa nationals because visas are just not being processed in a timely manner).
