Just travelled through LTN to CDG for the weekend rugby and thankfully Easy got us back with minimal delay given the French strike.
Couldnt believe how busy the terminal was on Friday afternoon, .Seating is the usual real problem and will certainly only get worse this summer.
Looks like predictions of 1 Million pax in March is a real possibility.
Big downside was the length of time from pushback to airborne.
08 was in use and seven were waiting, nearly all backtracked the full length-really do need to get the parallel taxiway built at that end.
Was impressed with the new security, all lanes open with hundreds of people queueing but only five minutes to get through.
Went to the Bar down by Gates 1-4 for a bit of peace, got talking to the staff there.It appears that the Duty free will eventually be moving to its new location at the old security area by the end of May. Seems this has been delayed at least twice.When they move refurbishments are being carried out to some current retailers inc Starbucks.
All in all the experience was much better than anticipated given all the work going on!!
