Alicante Airport - 2 years on

Last time I was there I encountered what can only be described as the worst airport air con system in the world. Admittedly, they had only just opened the new terminal so I gave them the benefit of the doubt.

I was there at about 10pm last Saturday night waiting to fly home from 2 weeks in the sun and the air con was still absolutely lamentable. I have never seen so many pink Brits wiping sweat from their faces whilst we waited for the flight to be called.

Even when it was called and we started down the jet way, we were held up inside it for about 30 minutes whilst a late aircraft change was made. If I thought it was bad in the terminal, the air con in the jet way was worse.

Mind you, credit to the crew of EZY2228 they got us back to LTN only 5 mins behind schedule. Shame the dullards at Menzies took forever and three belt restarts to get our luggage to us.
