I was there just before it opened, so like 8:45 yesterday, the process is very quick, it’s just waiting for your number to get called ( well yesterday they called 1-140 and then 140-150 etc.
yesterday when I applied they wouldn’t let us through the gate without showing our number and then for the screening and handing in forms we had to line in numerical order too.
You’re lucky though! I was one of the first there and had to wait my turn
I went yesterday to apply and went to collect today and they had us go in numerical order. One girl even pleaded to go sooner as her flight was not too long after they opened and they wouldn’t let her.
