Travelling with citizenship certificate

Hi all,

I hope you can help me. I sent off my ILR biometric permit along with a driver's license application and I apparently wont get this back in time before I travel next week!
My citizenship ceremony is next week though and I will have the certificate.
I have seen related posts, but can someone please verify that I can enter the UK with this certificate?
What worries me more is the departing flight - don't they usually check your visa at that counter too if you have a return flight to the UK, and will they accept this citizenship certificate? (mule opposed to border control which might not 'have a choice' so to speak...)
Thanks all - I am really panicking!

You would probably be fine if you were travelling with your ILR BRP + BC certificate. However, without proof of ILR (even though this technically no longer exists) the airline may refuse you boarding.
