Thanks guys.
I told my love to get there 2 hours before opening. Apparently her friend went the other week and only 3 were there fro European slots.

My wife missed yesterdays slot for europe .. bad traffic & didnt know where the place was but today she was up at 1:45 and also got a lodging at the CFO. She says she was the 1st there with her friend she met going to Cyprus. Now at 3am there are 10 people there! I wished they would do a simple cheap to run & set up booking on line like the Embassy does .. no more worry and wonder if you will miss a slot.

Yup, we stayed in a nearby hotel and went there at 5am. At this time there were around 50 people waiting. Some seemed to have stayed in the waiting area overnight. The biggest problem was that 95% of the others were going to the US, but we could not tell this at the time. There was no 'England' queue so you didn't actually know whether you had got 'in' until you got to the reception desk through the swarm of pushing Filipinas all trying to do the same thing at the same time.
