Security queues at LPL offer a comparable experience to those at MAN. All passengers there are processed through one terminal and RYR/EZY flight programmes have periods of bunching resulting in peaky throughput, similar to what you see at MAN. The number of channels and staff deployed are tailored to the size of the airport and anticipated demand. LPL passenger traffic is drawn almost entirely from the no-frills sector so the service levels provided are geared to the demands of the low cost model. Last time I checked, LPL had a scheme whereby passengers who wanted a quick transit of security could pay an additional fee to use an express channel. Otherwise, waiting times are comparable to those in similar airport terminals elsewhere.
