Check in time

By some stroke of luck we have managed to upgrade two of our three PE flights from LGW to LAS to UC. (Using a combination of points and pounds). I have booked hair appointments for my son and myself in the clubhouse for 7.15am. (This Sat). Can anyone advise what time I should arrive at check in to get through all the enhanced security checks etc to ensure that I am at the clubhouse on time?
Also, where is the clubhouse in relation to the terminal - would like to have a browse round the shops but not sure if this is far away?

Many thanks for any information

An hour should be fine. However you may want to allow a bit longer to have a bite to eat before your treatment and to chill a little.

As you enter the departure lounge the club house is signposted to the right very near the shops. So pretty central.

Id allow a little longer, but an hour should be ok. When we flew out of LGW on Friday the queues were horrendous. We estimated 30 minutes to get through as we were flying Upper - but FastTrack was closed so we had to join the very long queues with everyone else. To be fair they do move reasonably well, it just looks dire when you see people queuing through to the shopping areas.

But, when you get to the haven of tranquility that is the CH, you'll be able to chill

Thanks,

Is the fast-track security line still running at Gatwick?

Wasn't when I went in sept

Thanks for the responses, does anyone know what time check in opens and what time the clubhouse opens?

Many thanks

Thanks Jilly, will try to get there around 5.30 then to get through the security checks in a reasonable time.
