Security and passport control can add 20-40 minutes at peaks.
Fast Lane pass (€10-20) or Star Gold skips the main queue.

Airside has standard chains but limited variety and higher markups.
Buy Fast Lane or lounge pass online for guaranteed entry.
The View and Diamond are the main paid options; The Loft is closed until November 2026.
