And we are off and running! Due to last minute meeting booked for this afternoon I headed for the airport earlier than planned. So early in fact that checkin was not open! Luckily the wait for checkin was not too long.

Birmingham airport is a building site and the low ceilings throughout make the airport feel institutional.









Fastpath through to the boarding pass check but then maybe I missed a turn as or there is no fast path security as I ended up in the main queue for security screening




This was incredibly slow and it was over an hour in total from arriving to air side





A quick look around and it’s off to the Aspire lounge
