From WHBM "Once again we are told that there is going to be "investment in new screening stations".
My current and recent experience is at LHR T1 International. My question would be, "why not use ALL of those currently available?" In my view 2 airside security points are overmanned, the one opposite Gate 14 (very under utilised) and the one guarding the entrance to the Gate 25 plus area. In addition, there always seem to be plenty of security staff wandering around staring into space!
