Where these times come from
Published embassy guidance tends to describe the best case. These figures are the median across the files we closed, which is a more useful number when you are booking flights.
- Median rather than minimum
Half of our files land faster than the figure shown and half land slower.
- Measured from submission
Not from your first enquiry. Add our 48 hour to 7 day preparation on top.
- Peak seasons run longer
June to August and December add roughly 30% to most European routes.
- We quote your case specifically
Your nationality and route can move the number in either direction, and we will tell you which way.
Ask us anyway
We add routes regularly. If it is one we cannot do well, we will say so and point you to someone who can.
