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. Airport code Inbound?
