It's strange that a number of posters in here can't wait to rub their hands with glee at any perceived glitch in the SEN operation. To my knowledge SEN's terminal is not littered with disappointed pax who have been denied boarding, should that be the case EZY would have departed long ago and FR wouldn't have even bothered. Their respective number crunchers will have worked out their performance figures under various met. conditions and deemed them to be commercially viable, so
let's give this theme a bit of rest shall we, it's all getting rather tedious.
Perhaps we could shift the attention to the LTN thread where it has been reported some of the fire exits were blocked when the terminal had to be evacuated a while ago.
Now if true that really is something to be concerned about.
