I used STN for the first time in many years just a couple of weeks ago. It is now truly awful...what used to be a spacious and airy terminal has been transformed into a hot and overcrowded shopping centre. I know that's the way airports in general are going, but it has been totally overdone at STN. And it feels like you're following a never ending "yellow brick road". I was relieved to get out of the main terminal and into the satellite for some peace and space.
It has really put me off using STN again...
