Could never understand why the no 1 Lounge shut down or why in fact the airport only has just the one mediocre lounge
That'll be a big boost for STN when it happens. I'd also agree that the current Escape Lounge pales in comparison to other London airport lounges, and I'd also say that the fact that STN, as the third busiest UK airport only has the one lounge is poor- LGW for example has multiple lounges and has a large LCC presence.
Also, prior to MAG taking over STN, didn't the airport have airline lounges in each of the 3 satellites? I can understand why there would no longer be any in satellite 3, given that this is exclusively FR territory, but I think it is a shame there aren't any in satellites 1 and 2, as there is the space available for them.
