I approached from Wigmore by long stay car park bus, solid traffic from the roundabout by the hotel. No idea how far it stretched back before that. This at 5:45 am.
That is a surprise, I have yet to see any sort of queue even at that time of the day. Wonder if one of the drop off lanes was closed due to a barrier fault or other reason.
Security busy but only a ten minute wait. The ex silverjet terminal appeared to be in use as an additional security area - is this correct?
It seems to be but only first thing in the morning it would appear.
I would say an extra thousand pax would be pushing it
The terminal is full first thing in the morning so without terminal expansion extra stands are pointless.
Also all the night stoppers have to take off whilst the first wave of wizz arrivals are coming from the east
Plenty of stands available by the time the first Wizz of the day arrives as there has already been around 15 departures but as stated 13 Wizz arrivals in 30 minutes does not help the departure rate.
