From Station Platform the Lift leads straight into to Departures Concourse in 3rd floor. Through a self-service check-in machine, printed our boarding passes. Then dropped our bags. Here too, one has to put the luggage in the Weigh Scale. If the weight is within the permissible one, Tag automatically gets printed with ticket number, name, seat number and weight. We have to put the tag on the luggage and keep it in mover to carry on. Once the luggage moved, a slip is printed for our reference to claim. No human assistance, everything is automated. Then Security Screening. Then stepped into departure lounge. A huge one. Might be more than 100 shops in the lounge. Also eateries.
53 Gates are there, numbered thru A B C. Our Gate is C53. We are in A1.
From here, took APM (an underground Automated People Mover) to reach our Gate. Awaiting Boarding
Good Bye, London. See you.
