Actually the terminal extension Northwards, which would have gone ahead this winter I think but not now, wouldn't have increased the walking distances to any great extent. It would have increased the number of gates to 10 or so and enlarged the baggage reclaim and immigration areas which were becoming pinch points. The retail offering could also have been expanded. All in all it would have brought the terminal more into balance with the number of contact stands so might even have improved the customer experience.
All just a dream now and it will be a long time before it's built, if at all who knows, as the 'new' plan suggests a separate Arrivals building. As far as Stobart itself is concerned the only saving grace is that their cash position is much better but the revenue streams are uncertain and the 25p share price tells the story.
