Southend is by FAR the most pleasant to use of all the London airports.
Well that depends on how well London City is doing and avoiding an off day let's be honest.

OK am I alone in thinking that very few seriously see SEN as a London airport? No disrespect to a good development for the local area but it's no more a London airport than Manston or Oxford. Southend-on-Sea may do well out of it coupled with better connections for local holiday makers and businesses but for the love of God, if you guys actually were to become a "London" airport, the customer experience would tank dramatically!
The proof of the pudding is the profile of the users. I am guessing local, outbound and leisure predominate,can anyone link to some numbers?
