They were heading to Ireland for one of those walking tours, while I am going there to relax with my extended family (no walking tours for me!).

At LHR, being a Global Services member with United, I was met at the plane and they escorted (drove) myself and my traveling partners over to the flight connections center, saving *alot* of walking.
Another walk though security that didnt' seem any different than before (of course, I didn't have the typical 22" roller bag with me -- that probably would have caused a problem)
Now I wait my flight on Aer Lingus to Shannon... almost there!
