Positive enforcement at LHR T5 this evening
I wrong footed myself by joining the very much shorter general boarding line this evening. As it happened staff were not only enforcing the fast track lane but also held back general boarding until the very last passenger cleared the fast track channel. That person happened to be me - I switched lane after I'd cottoned on to what was happening.
Anyway, by my rough calculation about 60% of passengers who boarded tonight's 1494 did so via the fast track channel.
