OLCI Not Working on 2 Flights for 16/6 - Why?
I haven't flown since last October but I'm on a flight to LIN tomorrow (16th June) and my daughter is on one to AMS. Both of us unable to OLCI despite the button being there to OLCI in MMB and us also receiving an e-mail informing us OLCI is open. Trying to just gets this message:
"Sorry, we are unable to offer you Online Check-in for this flight on this occasion.To check in and receive your boarding pass, please proceed to the airport"
When my daughter flew in from AMS 13 days ago she was able to OLCI for BA at AMS but seemingly not on the return LHR-AMS. So, are BA IT systems yet again up the creek or a wider issue to do with Covid related docs checks?

Does anyone have any recent experience of arriving at Milan LIN and know roughly how long the Immigration process takes at the moment with all the doc checks etc? I arrive there tonight on BA at 18:30 so trying to plan whether to try and get to my final destination in Italy tonight or not.

I was in row 1 CE which would certainly help.
In my case all they did was check my passport. They did look through the passport pages presumably to see if I'd been anywhere recently. I'm not sure if the airline automatically informs them the proof of testing has been seen as they never asked me for that. So quick if near the front of the queue but for those at the back it will all add up.
If you're British you will now get a stamp like all the other non-EU countries.
