Hi everyone
I'm flying upper class in July and I've heard you get a fast track security sticker? But where will I need to go for fast track? Is it located in a different location to regular security?
Thanks

There is supposed to be a fastrak channel at LGW, but it's not easy to find. Last time I flew from LGW, I gave up trying to find it simply because there where so many pax around the security entrance so instead I just used the ordinary upstairs security channel as this tends to be less busy anyway.

LGW are due to open a new security area sometime this year, although I'm not sure when. Hopefully this will make things easier.

Fast track is to the left of the normal security lines downstairs. It only opens at 7am.

I dont usually bother with it as upstairs normal security is normally pretty quick anyways, and I like to be in the CH for 7am

Thanks for the input!
I never knew they had security upstairs? Haha new to me and so it's definitely down next to the ordinary security channel? Is it much quicker incomparison to the normal security? I'm not sure how many people get the fast track sticker?
Thanks

On our trips from LGW Fast Track has actually been euphemistic for does not open on time. v(

I've never had a fast track sticker on my BP ?| The purple alone BP has never been an issue. Fast track as Penny_L has said is never open on time.

It's a shame to hear that there never open on time I'm just hoping they open it for my trip because I don't want to be waiting ages to get through security!!!
