Two LLAOL applications that need watching. The increase from 18 to 19 million passengers and the separate application to increase the airports nighttime noise limit as LLAOL don’t want to comply with existing limits. Even when passed, the banning of summer nighttime biz jets will remain as a council compromise so they can claim they are listening to concerns.

Personal view but I don’t think Luton will be affected as badly as other airports due to the virus as Eastern European’s will want to continue to travel for work and for family reasons. Walking around the airport English is definitely a minority language but it has been for a long time but there seems to be less English travellers over the last couple of weeks.

I can walk from the drop off area to the far end of the terminal which is a 5 minute walk and I won’t hear anyone speaking English apart from staff members and many of them are not speaking English either.
