Well if that's what you want then the terminal developments are looking good.
The new fast food joint Leon is very good. It's good to finally see a good, hot, healthy fast food option at reasonable prices and, as airside staff, I'm happy that the food can all be taken through security - a godsend for staff like myself wanting to pickup food before starting night shifts.
The new flights just announced by Jet2 are always good to hear about and it's nice to see Thomson investing in the aircraft based here, modifying them with Scimitar winglets.
The increase in UPS/SRR traffic is also good to see - sunday nights now see 2 brown tails and 2 stars on the east ramp.
Hopefully soon the new Duty Free area and post-security 'decompression zone' will be complete certainly the new walkway to gates 1-5 is looking almost complete with only the false ceiling to be installed if it's as complete as it looks from the outside - no more going through that awkward chicane of re-purposed service corridors squeezed between boots and WHSmiths Books.
Unfortunately elements of the terminal do feel cramped at the moment (particularly the post-security area and the exit from Duty free) due to the hoardings for the last stages of 3 separate works areas but these will hopefully soon be gone.
The presence of dnata in the Cargo 3 freight facility combined with advertising for multi-skilled ground handling operatives can only be good news for the airport.
The new paint shop, Airborne Colours, certainly seem to be doing good trade with (along with Air Livery) both paint shops seeing a steady stream of aircraft through their doors.
Passenger wise EMA is busier than it has been for a long time with early rumour of between 8-10% more passengers month on month than last year which was, in turn, around 8% up on the previous year.
Lots of good news going on.
