I'm Canadian. I went to Heathrow one time last year and waited in an immigration line longer than... well ever. It was around a 1 hour wait through the International line.
I don't even see a point of being part of the "Commonwealth" if there isn't a line for citizens, while EU citizens pass largely freely. Regardless of preferential treatment, I thought it was ridiculous that the EU wait time was 0 minutes (as in, there was clearly not a lineup at all) but the internationals line was incredibly long and they didn't bother adding more officers to deal with it.
- anghyflawn 15y agoI suppose it varies. I am a non-EU citizen who lives in the EU, so most of the time I come to the UK on EU flights. Situations like the one you describe happen, but more often than not you actually have three planefuls of EU citizens crawling through the control while the handful of people who do need a visa breeze through. Although obviously you will have more non-EU people at Heathrow than at Liverpool.
