And the penalties for not following the rules are no laughing matterā€¦!

The First Class cabin should be fairly quiet though.

Dublin Airport was like a morgue yesterday. Very quiet. I heard it was an hour or more through security a few days last week due to lack of staff.

they were all doing their PMDS with @Batigol

Thanks mate.
Is verifly the BA one?
I think I need to do the BA one and all the Singapore stuff.
Didnā€™t see verify mentioned anywhere.

I think VeriFLY is used across the IAG platform

Thanks. BA have just sent me links to theirs (may be the iag one, I havenā€™t checked as thereā€™s no point til I get my 48 hour PCR back)
I have a bad feeling about this trip, but I get a bad feeling about all trios these days involving checking in.
I have an internal flight Manchester to LHR, which BA in their wisdom.had booked me to connect with a Singapore flight 45 minutes after landing.
Itā€™s both T5, but I expect Iā€™ll have to exit and go back through security etc, so Iā€™ve got a three and a half hour layover in Heathrow.
Iā€™ve just bought a bag of sleeping pills.
:confused:

Passed through for about 24 hrs years ago on way back from Van Diemens land. I got the impression it is almost like a business hub for Asia?
What would be main industries brining people there? (from Ireland even)

I used VeriFLY in Octoberā€¦found it very straightforward

Was that before you had to upload a negative test?

I was in manchester airport Saturday evening. It was absolutely empty. Girl said theyā€™ve not bothered opening majority of food places as thereā€™s just no numbers coming through the airport.

We were last flight of day. It took off early, had maybe 10 people onboard and we hit the tarmac in Dublin 30 mins later.

There are some positives to travel right now compared to normal times

It reads QR codes fairly easily. Just need to zoom in on them.

Rudimentary transfer pricing played a very big role in pulling dosh through Singapore and Hong Kong back in the early the days.

We flew out in half term and it was bedlam

Yeah just the cert locator form etc

All US airports are back to relative normality. I came through LaGuardia and JFK last week and the usual nonsense. Half the time I wonder what the point is in paying for TSA pre clearance annual charge.

Dublin appears to be a little slower in recovery. Thereā€™s a few retail units that still look unopened. 51st and Green has been a disgrace of late.

Iā€™ve just updated a total of eight documents to the BA app and am awaiting confirmation Iā€™m allowed to travel.
:confused:

Dixonā€™s closed today. McDonalds is gone next week. Covid lunacy destroyed the airport

Neither a loss in fairness.

Individually maybe not but theyā€™ve followed a load of other spots
