A list of airports serving SkyTeam, and whether they have an immigration fast lane on the inbound (if relevant), or a security fast lane on the outbound, and who can gain access.

When travelling entirely within the Schengen zone, there are no immigration controls so the "inbound" column is not relevant.

American airports with SkyPriority are documented by Delta so are not presently included in this list.

If anything more than a valid boarding pass or FF card is needed to gain access to the lane, it will be noted.

Please amend and correct the list according to your experiences.

Is it true that there still is no fast lane at security at Bordeaux? That's what the Wiki says, but I wanted to briefly check whether that is still current.

Thanks.

I added the line on Bordeaux yesterday, based on my own observation yesterday that there was no signposted fast lane.

I was in BOD a month ago (approx) and there was definitely a SkyP lane (on the right, behind the SKyP check-in desks). I corrected the wiki (and added MPL in the list)

NCE: after renovations, there wasn't any outbound fast lane in February, but when I came back in May it was there again. Terminal 2, on the left of the lane entrances, look out for Easyjet fast line (same fast lane, just easier to spot).
No clue for inbound.

STR: No inbound.
Outbound: Yes, go to Terminal 2 entrance.
It failed to me once, I had a Delta flight with my FB number recorded. So I simply used the Terminal 2 regular pax entrance and waited 1 minute at security instead of 10 seconds.

I confirm that there this SkyP access to security does exist. Indeed I would not have spotted it without Goldorak's explanation, especially since there is a sign just in front that says that access to the boarding gates is somewhere else!

Heh, poor signage is kind of a French thing I think, and BOD really stood out in that regard.

Yes, it is - but (i) we're good at dealing with ambiguity and at being creative to muddle ourselves through, where half the energy is spent on complaining; (ii) around here nobody gives a toss about signage anyway.

And poor signage is just for beginners. The higher art is contradicting signage.

Any Fast lane in Incheon (Seoul) for arrival and departure for CX Business class pax?

Hello all,

My first post here so please pardon me if I am in the wrong thread, question as title, does anyone know if there is any "fast lane pass" distributed to CX passengers traveling on business class to Incheon Airport (Seoul, Korea)?
Thank you so much.

RAK

Added Marrakesh - RAK to the wiki. No inbound fast track (if you absolutely require it it can be bought in advance for 500 dirhams, which gives you access to an arrival lounge pre-immigration apparently), but outbound fast track is rather efficient, it can be found on the right hand side of security with a separate entrance. Be prepared for some proper security theatre though
