Your ugly mug may be scanned yet again – but at least you'll be able to board faster at Gatwick

Who are you?

I just hope these boarding gates are better than the ePassport ones coming in.

I fly from Gatwick at least twice a month on business (it's my local airport, within a few miles of home), and literally 90% or more of the time those ePassport gates don't recognise me and I end up going to the rejects border agent anyway. Oddly though it's only UK airports that have this issue (I get the same on the long-haul's when I need to use Heathrow), as similar machines abroad normally work without issue.

As yet I've never had a flight go from LGW gate 107 (the one EJ were using for the trial) but I guess with this announcement it's only a matter of time before I do end up there or one of its upcoming siblings.

Almost as if the UK Government is trying to hint at something?
