That has not changed - most times I've flown recently from a proper
airport (not Stansted) I have waited no longer than about 5 minutes for
security. Stansted is mismanaged, but also is not of any relevance to
BA flights from Manchester to London.

I went through security at Stansted this summer without waiting - I was
past security within five minutes of having got off the coach.

Things don't stand still.
