Following forum advice approached podium to ask how it would be handled. Was ushered into pre board area. Flighty messaged a 40 min delay so being at A15 the staff very kindly allowed us to deboard and return to the CCR. Upon return group 1 was already queuing but a switched on member of staff twigged 0 as we produced our BPs and turned us back and told us to walk outside the tensa to the podium where we were again ushered into the pre board area. As pre board were using lifts we were actually first on board. Slightly weird. But very well handled.
