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.
That is fantastic news LTNman.
London Luton Airport is now officially an airport that attracts predominantly people from all over the World and not just locals which means it has an important place in the UK's future transport infastructer and can deliver important employment opportunities for all.
