Being out of the airport before the scheduled arrival time
Hi FT!
Yesterday my mum arrived from GRU to BCN with SQ with a scheduled time of 9.05 AM. The plane arrived 8.30-ish and she passed through passport control and collected her checked bags and was out of the airport before 9.00.
Luckily I arrived there just in time to welcome her

I found it odd, because always I have found that checked bags arrive late, like an hour waiting at GRU I had, or if the bags are early is the passport control that takes an hour or more (in DXB, LAX).
So having a passport control fast and also the delivery of the bags, was great.
Only wanted to share

I've been out of the airport before the ETA. That's when the flight is cancelled...
Well, whenever the flight I'm on has good tailwinds, even if we land early, we still wait. I might have been in this situation once though, at HND.
