Today it's all changed.
Outside the Terminal are Police cars blocking close access to the Terminal, and parking wardens in evidence.
Around the central area Police are patrolling car parks, airport access roads, the hotels, flying club area and freight terminal.
Inside the Terminal are Police officers with what look like sub-machine guns.
Has there been a scare, or is it an exercise or does LTNman have influence in high places?
Oh, and by the way, this increase in security has been done reassuringly. The boys in blue are highly visible, but not intrusive or obstructive. Just right, well done!!
