Checked in at DUB 15 minutes after check in opened, and only half an hour after passing the desk previously, but somehow managed to get boarding card 105 :confused: I was well prepared for lengthy security queues due to the tightening of procedures at Dublin after a shocking security audit several days before. However it was of course Saturday night, and so everyone was arriving into Dublin, not departing from it.
The queue was non existant, I walked straight up to the X-Ray machine. I had my metal watch on when I went through the machine, and nothing else metallic, however the watch has never set off a machine before. However the machine beeped, and I was called back, took off my watch, and also asked to take off my shoes which has never happened before! Sure enough, walking through the machine, and it didnt go off. The sensitivity must have been racked right up.
After watching the movements for a short while my flight was called nearly 30 minutes early, and we boarded EI-CJC on Hertz colours almost immediatly. Luckily I found a window seat, by the engines too, and started snapping away! The flight was very average, arriving into LGW 15 minutes early.
