the move of the easyjet tent, which is taking up two stands on the eastern apron, has been suspended, as the tent is not up to the move
LTNman, the 'easyJet tent' is not going to move in the sense that the covering cannot be removed and refitted without causing significant damage. The structure beneath could be dismantled and relocated, however.

The plan is now for easyTech/FLS to lease Britannia's Hangar 89 on which Britannia has an 18 month lease outstanding. After that, guess easyTech/FLS will lease direct.

Since the late 80's, the builders have been there and what is there to show for it in terms of passenger convenience and improvements?
Although not currently at its best owing to the vast amount of building work going on, suggest nonetheless you take a look at what LTN now offers passengers compared to 10 or 15 years ago which is considerably improved over what it was. Aviance even has a business/frequent fliers' lounge facility.

Instead of making negatively inaccurate and subjective statements perhaps Vking9, you'd enlighten us all as to what exactly you define as 'passenger convenience and improvements'??

Better still, why not visit before making comment...

Whilst many BAA shareholders no doubt consider LTN to be of little or no significance in terms of business competition, those who see the Airport as a 'has-been Cinderella' ought now to wise up, and do so rapidly.

Providing all goes well, effective 04 January 2005, TBI and therefore, the Luton operating company LLAO will be owned by Abertis/AENA. For those who don't know, AENA is the Spanish version of BAA combined with the UK's NATS. The Company's book value far exceeds even BAA's and its expertise in running airports is equivalent to BAA's and of running air traffic control, equal to NATS. And it ain't gonna lie back, be pushed around and just let it happen guys, BELIEVE ME!!!!

It's also arguably the best thing that has happened to LTN since the local Borough Council ceased running the Airport.

Cynics BE WARY of judging the future by the past...
