Who it suits
A flight before 08:00 from T1 or T3.
Why we would choose it
You walk to check-in under cover, so a late train or a missed shuttle cannot cost you the flight.
The compromise
It is the dearest of the three, and the walk is up to 10 minutes, not next door.
Worth paying more?
Yes for a flight before 08:00. Not for a late-morning flight.

You wait for the shuttle, and it picks up at T3, so leave extra time from T1.
Worth paying more?
Yes for a family or a budget stay before an early flight.
