Just out of curiousity, whilst you were doing your rounds of the terminal and drop off area earlier today how many English voices did you hear 😉

On a more serious note those photos clearly show how bad the situation has become, it's unbelievable how empty the airport looks. A similar view was taken of the terminal of my local airport of Southampton the day after the collapse of Flybe but that was fairly understandable considering that the airline accounted for 95% of the airport's business.

It'll be interesting to know the passenger figures for today as going forward it's not looking too good especially by looking at your photos. On the news earlier it announced that people were cancelling their travel plans at an alarming rate not only those intendeding on travelling abroad but also those staying in the UK.

It's going to have an absolutely detrimental effect on the entire travel industry this year, alot of people working in the industry are afraid of their livehoods, myself included.
