Passenger reveals UK airport hack to avoid security queues and claims it never takes more than ten minutes
A PASSENGER has revealed a secret airport hack to avoid security queues and it never takes more than ten minutes.
Frequent flyers have been left stunned after finding out how much time they can now save themselves after discovering the incredible secret.
In a 29 second clip uploaded onto TikTok, a woman reveals how she gets through airport security quicker than anyone else at Stansted Airport.
Millions of Brits will know the pain of being caught up in airport queues but now there is an easier way to go about checking in for your flight.
A caption attached to the post read: “I used to hate travelling home from Stansted, but this trick is a lifesaver.. and a timesaver.”
In the video, the woman (@thecraicinlondon) provides a walk-through guide of what she does when she gets to the departures area at the airport.
She reveals that by going through the “fast track” area, even without a fast track pass, you are still able to get through and check in quicker than everyone else.
That’s because there are still normal check-in gates right besides the fast track area.
And this is still accessible even with a standard boarding pass.
The woman claims it is the “fastest security queue in Stansted that you’ll ever see.”
“Trust me, you won’t queue for more than ten minutes this way,” she added.
However, although the woman may have solved a lot of people’s problems, some viewers weren’t happy that she gave away the secret.
One person said: “Yeah, thanks for giving it away.”
Another moaned: “Oh God the secret way has been revealed.”
But there were some people who revealed their own tips to fellow travellers once they get through the other side.
“Also when you get through security, follow the fast track signs again and go through the doors near the toilets, skip all of duty free,” one said.
“If you go all the way left now they’re trialling new scanners so you don’t have to take anything out of your lugagge,” chimed another.
It comes after a dad revealed his clever hack to get through airport security faster when travelling with kids.
Luke Gallimore recently travelled to Turkey with his family and used the trick to skip queues.
And one travel expert revealed a top airport hack that will save you money on the plane.
Savvy Julia Ferrarro took to social media to share her favourite travel tip that means travellers will “never have to pay for overpriced food” at the airport again.
