Why does a leisure airport have to be a particularly enjoyable experience in peak summer ? I don't enjoy travelling on the tube in London during the rush hour
Most UK residents want to spend the absolute minimum cash possible on flights - perhaps an acceptance that to achieve holiday happiness while keeping to a limited budge, money is best saved on the flight and spent on other things such as an extra meal in a restaurant.
Meh there will be one or two that it annoys so much they wont return. The reality is even the person having the worst trip this year. Next time the holiday time comes along and the flight from LTN is £50 cheaper they will be straight on it without a care in the world. Lets face it, Are any of "Londons" airports "fun" to fly from. I have been through STN and LHR countless times when it was fine and countless times when it was an absolute nightmare. Still fly from any of them that suit.
