Here's a test for the airport: I note that the flight from Rennes is delayed - now expected at 2305. My understanding is that many of nos amis francais will be on that aircraft and presumably their destination is Londres. What support will the airport provide given as the last train will have departed and there is no appropriate coach service?
The flight was late because of an earlier technical problem in the morning. I think the last train leaves SEN at 2307. There are often many passengers arriving after 2300 but they would be aware of that and made alternative plans. For other examples like this Rennes flight I have no answers. It could deter some people from using the service again. In a perfect world, the airlines should arrange the last arrival at 2215, but I see no short term changes on this subject.
