Skip the Security Screening Line with YYC Express
Anyone tried this yet? Apparently you can now book an appointed time to go through the security checkpoint at YYC. Would love to hear how well it works.

I used it a few weeks back. I turned up earlier than my booked time (due to a change in my outbound flight made after I booked the time). Nobody checked anything and I believe it's the same path used for business and elite flyers.
It definitely was a shorter queue so if you don't have status it's worth booking.

I tried to use it yesterday but the problem is that it makes you make an appointment at a specified time & that time is way earlier than I wanted to get there. I had a 2:55 flight & the latest time it would give me was 11:30. So I just waited in line and I must say security at YYC is a total cluster as far as bags on the conveyer. It takes way longer than it should.
