I had this in Gatwick South as was Travelling U/C with Virgin, so it was part and parcel of the holiday. But, I am on Saturday 26th travelling with Thomson, going from Gatwick North, and have booked No:1 lounge and part of that, is Express security - I quite like it, you get through security quite quickly, and I can then chill out in the lounge. No: 1 Lounge are doing this as part of a deal until October 28th for £25.00

This might help

Not sure if it varies by airport but at Manchester it's got to be booked no later than 10pm the day before your flight. For £3.50 well worth IMO just in case the queues are big. If they're not just choose the shortest one, which may not be the fast track.

Thanks for replays, I am flying with thomsons from birmingham, I have booked it online, perhaps it will give me the option to fast track when I check in online .

The fast track has nothing to do with the airline. You book it direct with the airport.

If booking PE with Thomson Fast Track is including ... we used it on our recent flight to the Dom Rep.

It has if you are travelling business class.

I'm flying from Birmingham with thomsons, you say it's the airport I book it with, can you book it in advance? Or when you arrive at airport?

Looks like you can purchase the fast track admittance at various kiosks around the airport.
