ebenezer Seasons Greetings
My comment was just aimed at my last experience of LTN as a passenger, which admittedly was earlier in the year. Check in with EZY was just that, easy. From there on it went down hill. Having to do a 180 and head towards the security channels to find 3 scanning areas open and literally hundreds of passengers queing in a snake like fashion and in a painfully slow manner moving towards the scanners. Once the gate had been reached, I was then hurded onto a bus and driven what was about 100 yards to the awaiting aircraft.
On the return, I parked on stand 13 I believe and had to wait 15 minutes for a bus to take me to the terminal where again, I had to wait over 30 minutes for my luggage.......
Stand 13 was used because no stands were available terminal side and not because the aircraft had finished its duty for the day. I know that because the crew told me they were turning round for another 2 sectors (I knew the purser).
Not a negative comment, just my opinion of an airport that appears to have not kept up with others around the UK. Having worked there on and off since the early 80's, I've seen bad attempts at what is called "expansion". It's a building site with a runway.
Happy Christmas to one and all.
