VIRGIN ATLANTIC has cut Upper Class passengers' check-in time at Heathrow's Terminal 3 to 40 minutes. The move follows the introduction a year ago of the airline's own security channel.
Passengers can now give their check-in details to their limousine driver, clear security and go straight to the departure gate.
Steve Ridgway, chief executive of Virgin Atlantic, commented: "The introduction of this new check-in time at Heathrow allows our Upper Class passengers to spend even less time at the airport, offering them flexibility in their travel plans."
