I'm about to travel overseas next week in business class using QF/EK. I wondered if the express lane for security / customs is open at Melbourne International Airport? Do they still use the same paper 'Express Lane' tickets?
We travelled to Munich on Tuesday evening this week in business with Emirates. There was no Express Lane for security but none was needed either. We were through security in less than five minutes and through immigration about two minutes after that. The international terminal was very quiet generally.
Travelled in July, also definitely no express lane needed, breezed through in 5mins. Also they have the security scanners that don't require laptops out if the bag. customs and security both were very quiet. Brilliant.

Many thanks.

Agree with Travelbugsbitten. No express lane needed. International is generally quiet, no delays in security and passport control.
