Not sure what the issue at PMI was but what we did experience on Friday at LIS was a 2 hour 20 minute wait while passengers from EU countries sailed through passport control, with only one Egate open and two booths open for non-EU passengers. After the EU passengers were through LIS border personnel were redeployed onto the non-EU gates and we were through in about 10 minutes. It could have been something similar at PMI but hopefully things run smoother for UK passengers as the summer season progresses.
