All details available on the Net. Search UK IRIS.
But brief summary:
Aimed at business traveller I think.
Booths located at Heathrow, Gatwick and some others. Hours vary. Not open pm at Gatwick for example (by design?) so Grockles (holiday makers) cannot register. Need to be outbound through security to register.
At Heathrow T3 (open all day) procede through security T3 . Office is on the right just before the shoe removal queue and duty free. Take passport to nice young lady. Smile into camera and hey presto you are registered for at least 2 years I think. Takes 10 mins and is free.
Looking forward to using Gatwick IRIS next week - just to feel special again! Saves shuffling the UK and Ozzie passports about after a reconnoitre of each Q length and always joining the slowest!! And with only handluggage it also means that you beat a potential Q at the carhire desk, and of course you get further up the Q on the M25 on a Friday arvo.
So many Q,s !! So little time. Good en yer IRIS!!!!
And Yes it does recognise tired eyes etc.
