> I would like to make this as painful as possible. Convince your local representative to support even more airport security theatre ;-) Pointless airport security measures are a real pain in the ass. On a more serious note and more to the point: - Travel light. If possible only have carry-on luggage. Checked luggage means additional time and hassle. - Only travel with airlines that provide some sort of digital ticket (preferably as Apple Wallet pass if you have an iOS device). This makes the various check-ins a lot easier. Believe it or not, there are still airlines today that go paper-only (Aer Lingus being a notorious example). - Although they have privacy implication you might want to apply for an ePassport (if applicable to the destinations you travel to): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPassport_gates https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPassport_gates . They make immigration check-in somewhat faster, at least until everybody's using them. - Some time ago at Heathrow Airport I saw a combined scooter / carry-on luggage device: http://www.microkickboard.com/teen-adult-scooters/luggage-scooters http://www.microkickboard.com/teen-adult-scooters/luggage-sc... Pretty cool and saves you quite some time, particularly at very large terminals such as The Queen's Terminal at Heathrow.
