Heathrow t5 disruption 2nd April
Just teeing up this thread given tomorrow is the first day of school holidays and a Saturday so people can share pictures of first wing queues snaking back to Zone A...

I will be flying with the full clan next Saturday but connecting from EDI so will sadly miss the landside T5 fun....
However, sadly have multiple non-Verifly-verifiable things to deal with at a check-in desk (although HBO); any word on being able to hop down to the BA desks at EDI (or LHR for others) the night before when it might be quieter to get BPs printed?
I know twilight check-in used to be "a thing".

First it was the T5 to T3 times, now this.
I feel like a boy scout about to earn his first badge.

Slightly OT, but since I'm (hopefully) flying tomorrow with family...
If I've dropped all checked bags with AirPortr, have done VeriFly and have BPs, can I go straight to security - or do you still need to get documents checked at a desk? Heading to France.
