If we believe the BBC it also left

with bags ?
A bbc article earlier today also quoted long queues at checking and security, quoting Walsh as saying:
some passengers were turning up particularly early for flights, adding to queues
Presumably the right thing to do faced with a new terminal with reported teething problems is to turn up late.
