Just completed my MEL-SIN-MEL trip in BA WT+ (for an excellent school reunion) and thought I'd report on checkin.

At MEL I arrived before checkin opened (to tie-in with my lift to the airport), but I had checked in online the night before. Asked the checkin agent who was "setting up" the desks for checkin where the "Fast Bag Drop" queue/desk was. She advised that sometimes they have one and sometimes they don't. As it turned out, they didn't, but I had told her I had checked in online, so she had me queue where the OLCI pax normally would, and processed me first when checkin opened. A nice touch.

BTW, I think there was a separate checkin queue for WT+ pax.

At SIN, I didn't do OLCI. Had little impact. I was in QP checkin line, but pax at checkin desk were having major probs, so I was waved to the next-door checkin desk (can't recall who it was designated for), and was checked in quickly.

All rather painless.
