Thanks...


a. Run :)
b. Probably find the non resident queue nearest to the US resident lines and hope they open up to non residents once they've cleared their US arrivals
c. I don't believe there is any fast track facility. There certainly wasn't this time last year.

Hope this helps

No fast track and it will be very quiet and you'll be first off the plane. As long as the agents have finished their tea and are staffing their stations, you'll be through quickly.

Thanks. Seem to remember they just use one jetbridge, and as this is a A340 presume they will be using middle door rather than front door. Agree?

Thanks again...

You'll be on a A343 most likely, and they'll use L1 I think (Tinks is our sage of the doors!) - even if it's L2 the crew will hold back PE and Y until UC passengers have disembarked.

When I boarded the VS18 last month it was through L2. It's the A346 that has to use L1 as the jetway can't reach L2 on that aircraft
