Because STN has deteriorated so much over recent years. Most of the other London airports have,in some ways, got better. Not LTN, obviously, but LTN was always poor. But STN used to feel pleasant,...

Couldn't agree with this more. STN has been my local airport for 20 years and I now think twice about using it. Crazy!

Must be hard for Terravision. They built a very strong market position and now they're chucked out. I never see anyone on the Citylink service though

Friends of mine just flew in via STN and said that Terravision coaches are no longer able to pick up from the coach station. Can this be true? I saw no mention online

Yes, which is why Pegasus thrives although TK tried it with Anadolujet for a while but then switched to LGW which seems more lucrative.

It's interesting that the takeover of LGW by GIP resulted in quite a speedy improvement in the passenger experience. By way of contrast, the takeover of STN by MAG has gone in the opposite direction....

I also passed through STN recently for the first time in a while. It is, quite simply, awful. It has been, for geographic and route reasons, my main airport for many years; but now I would seek to...

I saw it as a backup move for when FR start CGN and 4U have to pull or reduce their flights. I think they'll slaughter Etihad on DUS. They're very popular with all the German expats in London.

28 flights per week to CGN! That should put the wind up their competitors. But seems like FR have dropped Dortmund, so obviously they can't always beat the competition (i.e. EZY from LTN)

We've been using STN as our main airport for years (admittedly nearly always leisure) and have preferred it to all the other London airports (apart from LCY) for ease of use. For anyone living in NE...

I think the reality is that LGW generally gives higher yields than STN, judging from prices on flights that operate from both airports for EZY. Always seem that bit higher than at STN.
