Not sure if this has been covered before (its a long thread!), but whats goiing on with the passport control at Liverpool? Got in Sunday 11pm, and the place was an absolute joke.
Passengers were queued either up on the apron, almost 100m either side of the entrance to the terminal, as well as those joining the queue to passport control from intermally.
Other than the security/ safety aspect of having several hundred people on the apron, which is obvious. The fact that not all the passport desks were in operation either did not help, clearly last thing in the evening there is a rush as the last of the LO-Cos.
To compound this, both airline staff and disabled wheelchair users had the indignity of having to push their way through several hundred people queued up waiting for passport control, not a great situation for either.
This has clearly been going on some time, with special covers set up and printed forms appologiesing for delays...no doubt there were 'unforeseen' circumstances.
