i am going to be using the v-room at gatwick for the first time soon and was wondering where the virgin fast track security channel was that gets you straight into the v-room as stated in the latest florida holidays mag second edition page 11.
thanks for any information ...

Hi and welcome to V-Flyer

I might be mistaken, but I think that there may be a little artistic licence being used in the Brochure :w

The location of the V-Room, on the top airside floor of the Terminal (accessed by a lift) is at the opposite end to the Security Channel area. To get there you have to cross the main Terminal floor before you get to the lifts and I suspect that what is being offered here is access to the Fast Track Security (which does not open until around 7:30 if i recall) so that you can quickly get to the V-Room.

The V-Room is a fantastic place and some excellent staff to make your stay very enjoyable

Hi, The fast track line doesn't go directly to the V-Room but in theory should allow you to bypass the sometimes long lines at the regular security check. It can be found to the left of the main security lines.

Be aware though that the fast track line often isn't open early enough in the morning so even though you could use it ... you can't because it isnt operation so you may still have to join the regular queues.

as others have said the fast track security channel was not open early enough when i went to Orlando in April. I can however say the V-Room is a fantastic place with some good views of the apron and runway, (i was able to see our aircraft land and taxi to our gate before boarding) i recommend getting to the V-Room early if only for the free breakfast (very nice bacon sandwich).
