With STN's passenger numbers rising substantially again this summer, and with the check in area becoming very crowded especially during peak times, I wonder if MAG did make the right decision in relocating the security area from its original central area to where it is now at the far left of the terminal and getting rid of zones J&K? Certainly didn't feel as congested then as it can be now. I presume that where the old security area was is now part of the departure lounge? Assuming the terminal extension gets the go ahead, it'll be interesting to see what MAG's plans are- would be nice if they were to roll back on the shops a bit in favour of more areas for passengers to sit down, as STN's problem now is that it has become almost chocked by the retail outlets MAG have managed to cram in. The terminal definitely felt more spacious even in the last few years of BAA ownership
