Yes, I agree with you that Signature at LTN have a superb facility that could surely hardly be bettered in terms of grandeur and opulence.

I'm sure though that there is a large segment of the market which is not really looking for that degree of luxury and might be happy with something more modest, there probably being a considerable difference in price between that and the SEN facility. As I said before I cannot see the Stobart Jet Centre making large inroads into LTN's traffic numbers but 5,000 mpa seems an achievable objective. My concern is that 'Stobart' and 'Southend' are not names that most potential users will recognise as meeting their needs adequately. It will need some heavy awareness marketing on Stobart's part to overcome this disadvantage I believe.

Regarding Customs and Immigration I don't think the pax have to be shipped to the passenger terminal for clearance at SEN although I stand open to be corrected on that one.
