That's a stressful situation, hope you got there in the end. Why are airports always so disorganised once they get busy? It's not like these process problems are novel for them to solve.

It was quite stressful, but I managed to make it onto my flight safely in the end. Apparently there are a big shortage of air traffic controllers as a bunch were laid off during COVID and now winter illnesses are hitting the remaining staff.
