A year ago, I felt that NCL was a local airport to be proud of from a regular users viewpoint. However, experiences over this winter season have radically changed that. Dpes aren't too bad, unless you are being bussed (you can't seriously call it a coach !). Stand in the bus for ages before it moves off with wind and rain blowing in. On Easyjet, I always now get on the second bus, because it's empty, and 95% of the time gets to the a/c before the first bus.

Arrivals have been a shambles. - sitting on the a/c waiting for buses, being bussed from a pier stand to another entrance, sitting in reclaim for 3/4 hour watching and waiting for somebody to even open up the aircraft hold to empty the bags while the belt rumbles around to no effect, queuing for 15 mins to get out of reclaim through customs because of those ridiculous revolving doors at the end, then standing outside in the wind and rain waiting for the "frequent" airport parking bus. Wow, what a customer experience !
