Suppose might be beneficial if you were overnighting in an onsite airport hotel.
It's great if you are in an on-site hotel or like me live within a 5-10 mins drive. For BHX simply park at the train station with 20 mins free parking (which has always been enough), nip over on the air-link and check in the whole family without the need to take them with me. There are dedicated twilight desks that rarely if never have a queue.
The pre 10am morning rush at BHX can be a nightmare so, assuming you're on a bucket and spade flight at 6am, then not having to queue twice at 3 or 4am for both check-in and then security for me is win/win!
