Seems that the airport wants to change the phasing of the redevelopment and have submitted a discharge of planning conditions.

PublicAccess v7.4 @ Luton Borough Council: Application Details (15/00159/DOC) and select the Associated Documents tab then view associated documents to download the PDF. The PDF also contains plans. Note this website is off air over night.

Phase 1 now includes a parallel taxiway to runway 08 and an expanded South Apron and the multi-storey car park. The multi-story car park and the 08 taxiway were part of phase 3.

Quick summery

Phase one

a. Dualling of the Airport access road
b. Minor changes to the Holiday Inn Roundabout to accommodate the new
road
c. Remodelling of the Central Terminal Area (CTA) and the Drop-Off Zone and
Taxi Rank
d. Remodelling of the junction into the Mid-Term Car Park (MTCP)
e. Construction of the multi-storey car park
f. Construction of the pedestrian bridge link across the CTA to the short term
car park or any agreed alternative
g. Construction of the link building between the old and new terminals
h. Extension of the baggage reclaim area within the terminal
i. Construction of the walkway to Stand 9L/60
j. Infills to Pier A
k. Construction of new Pier B.
These works will take place over two years between April 2015 and May 2017.

In advance of the main part of Phase 1, Enabling Works will be undertaken.

Enabling works do not constitute the commencement of development including:
pegging out, tree removal, demolition and removal of
buildings and other structures on the site, site clearance, service diversions and
/ or disconnections and / or temporary service provision, excavation of known
below-ground obstructions, perimeter fencing and security and signage.

2.3 These works, together with the provision of temporary buildings for contractors’ compounds and the creation of temporary access routes, under Part 4 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development)
Order 1995 will take place prior to the formal commencement of the Phase 1
works.

Additional enabling works relate to the terminal improvements. These are
necessary to create the space to enable the built improvements to take place.
They include provision of a temporary arrivals hall in the currently fallow area in
the Old Terminal Building, changes in access to the building, demolition of the
current arrivals hall, preparation for the new security screening area and the
relocation of security equipment, preparation and repair of dilapidations on the
first floor, the erection of hoardings and other internal re-organisations.

Terminal building improvements

3.15 Items g-k in paragraph 1.6 above all relate to improvements to the terminal
building.

3.16 The works to the terminal building will commence with the construction of the
walkway to Stand 9L and the infills to Pier A. The extension of the baggage
reclaim area will follow. The main construction of the Link Building will
commence in summer 2015 when all of the internal reorganisation and the
provision of some additional internal capacity has been completed. The most
significant element of the construction is the new Pier B and link to it, which will
commence towards the end of 2015 and take some sixteen months to
complete.

Completion of the terminal construction works and therefore Phase 1 is due in early 2017.

Phase 2

5.1 Phase 2 comprises the construction of Taxiway Foxtrot and the extension to the
West Apron.

5.3 These works are planned to commence in 2017 and be complete by 2019.

Phase 3

Phase 3 will include the extension of the parallel taxiway at the eastern end and
the provision of additional stands on the northern apron

It also looks like between 2019 and 2026 Landmark will lose their two aprons
