Newquay. A tin shed that cost millions on a closing RAF base where you have to telephone for a taxi in an arrivals shed. Then on departure you have to slip them a fiver before they'll let you use their "facilities".

To top it off they stopped scanning people through security at 2010 when I was supposed to be at the "gate" for the Stansted Ryanair at 2020 at the latest. It wasn't even scheduled to land until 2030. "You're a bit late sir" sayeth the Chief Security Officer. I decided not to argue for there would be little point as they were all knocking off early. Then a woman lost her £5 ticket that you have to surrender on leaving the gate, she was almost in tears of frustration. What a God awful amateurish place.
