I like it, you don't have to register, though do wonder if there will be enough machines or if the queues will be longer for these. It takes 20 seconds to get through, but it normally takes less than that for immigration to check a UK passport.
What will happen to IRIS though? I just wish they'd come up with one idea and put it in all airports, instead of trying new ideas and taking ages to come up with the standard, with no one system in the majority of airports.
