So what is the point of people doing the photo etc at the kiosk if they then join the normal queue and don't have a speedier entry. They should have a separate queue for people who have used the kiosks either on that arrival or on an earlier trip.
Does that mean that if travelling with a non-EU spouse but being a EU citizen, can I have her register in the kiosk and go together to the EU passports line like we have been able to in the past?
