Best photo I have, unfortunately:-

The Scandinavian airlines used to switch between Luton and Stansted for the season depending where the best deal was. They all followed the recommendation of a particular travel agent whose name escapes me who used to visit London each winter to do a deal. When they finally reverted back to Stansted we were told that if we wanted the business we would have to pay them and not the other way around!
