ok, so i am expecting the world, and it aint gunna happen, but i have to ask, even if it sounds errrr dumb

so when you arrive in miami, is there any possibile chance, that there is a seperate line for upper class/first class arrivals to go through us immigration faster, or are you queing with the brat in a pushchair on a 1 fare?

and yes, if this (fast track) is only summat in a dream, is there any upper class perk when arriving back at LHR - as in faster through uk arrivals/passport control ?

I know wake up smell the coffee, but hey, if i dont ask, would feel a right plonker if there was such a thing as fast track for upper class/first class arrivals in Miami and i wasted hours in a que i could have avoided just by knowing where to go

Failing that - anyone know the cost of a private jet to a private airfield - i am SO doing the lottery !!!!

Can't answer about arriving in Miami but when you arrive back in LHR you should be one of the first off the aircraft (which also should happen in MIA) and therefore be through Immigration quickly.

The major UC perk on arriving back in the UK is the use of the Revivals lounge where you can have a shower, your clothes pressed, have breakfast and possibly have a treatment before leaving for home or an ongoing flight

At MIA, and every US airport I have been to, the concept of fast track arrivals doesn't exist. So, sadly, by virtue of your UC ticket you won't be separated from the masses.

Arrivals into T3 are usually a doddle for UK citizens, or at most a ten minute queue - non-UK citizens of course get fast track if in UC and if you are Iris registered it's usually quicker too (on Sunday, the #1 and I arrived into T3 and I was through Iris and had four large suitcases on a trolley within fifteen minutes of landing for example).

MIA (as some people will remember) is my least favourite airport in the world. It's allways busy and even when off the aircraft quickly there can be significant queues in the immigration hall depending on what flights have arrived before you.

Maybe you should consider investing in a 'Brat in a pushchair'. A number of airports have express immigration lines for those travelling with kids, regardless of their class of travel, most recently noted in Dubai.

Or fake a leg injury, then you get the wheelchair and pushed to the front of the queue [:w].

Always remember there is potential of said 'brats in pushchairs' in fast track, revivals and even UC [:0]
