A magnificent achievement for the airport, the rest of us can only look on with envy. Well done to all those involved in the project.

I think that's the big question, I remember years ago when Ryanair were in T2 it was always a bus that brought me back into the terminal (when arriving from Dublin on a 'domestic' (CTA) flight. I can't quite remember where that door was located, but I seem to remember it might have been where the new baggage facilities are?Does the new T2X have domestic facilities?
I know there's still plenty of uncertainty in the air, but have there been any announcements ref which airlines will T2X will serve when finally opened?
I did read sometime during 2019 that Star Alliance carriers were next up (after Jet2). EW & SN were already in T2, but LH, LX, OS, TP, SAS etc were in T1.
This. The original plans had domestic on them and I want to say I’ve seen pictures of signage with “domestic” on it but can’t be sure.If my memory serves me right there are plans for a domestic facility in T2, but it will not be ready for another couple of years - at least.
There was a photo that I posted - and then was asked by the airport to remove - that had signage for, if I remember correctly, domestic and connections. I'll try to find it for reference.This.

Call me thick, but exactly how do domestic departure facilities differ from international? We all have to go through the same security screening, as do our checked bags / hand luggage. You may be able to get away with using a photo driving licence as ID for domestic , as opposed to a passport, but that's about it from what I can think of.
Anyone arriving from an international to domestic connection will be re-screened for security.
The one thing I do remember - vaguely - at the old LHR T1 was them taking a bio-scan of your index fingerprint if entering the security search hall for a domestic flight to link the passenger to the boarding pass. Domestic & international departures mixed airside in T1. You had to re-scan your fingerpint & boarding pass before entering the domestic departure gate area of T1
Domestic arrivals are obviously different, but MAN can be rather lax on them... about 20yrs ago we flew DEN-LHR-MAN. We did not have to clear Customs in LHR and all our bags just arrived on the domestic arrivals belt in T3. We were gone - as we may have spent over the £145 each you were allowed for "other goods" at the time whilst in the USA!
Good. Isn’t that 3 weeks earlier than the last date? I had July 15 in my head.MANTP now not expected to open before 21st June.
