Just arrived in Barbados after flying PE in the Bubble. Great flight with fantastic service throughout, until we landed. Downstairs, including Economy cabin, were disembarked first. We were held back for a good ten minutes or so resulting in us being at the tail end of a large immigration queue which took over an hour to get through.
I find it really annoying that Virgin advertise that PE will disembark before Economy when this is clearly NOT the case if you are in the Bubble.
Thoroughly enjoying Barbados though y)

Immigration queue in BIM seems to be always long and humid even when off first in Upper. Also annoying when random groups jump the queue and go through the desk on the right hand side, not sure what that is all about. At least you didn't have the dreaded 330. How is the weather over there and where are you staying.

That's strange as I have travelled in the bubble many times to BGI and have always got off before the people downstairs.

It is probably because the main deck economy pax on the right hand side are sent through PE on main desk and use L1.

Those upstairs and downstairs in economy on the left hand side use the L2 door.

Since L1 is opened first pax will probably always get mixed up when leaving.

That is the queue for those in transit to the cruise terminal.

Turtle Beach. Weather great so far, as is the endless supply of food and drink!!

You lucky thing. I remember sitting on the beach next door at Casuarina when they opened Turtle Beach - there were JCBs moving earth and a few poor souls trying to enjoy their sun loungers. Great location though. Hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday. I've got 63 days to wait. At least I can allocate our seats on Monday.....why am I getting excited about that???! (apart from it being our first UC flight!)
