Albawings service was originally mooted in Feb last year for a March`18 start at 4pw with B735.
Hopefully will be a more positive result this time & restore Tirana to the STN schedules.

London Stansted Transformation 
Newly designed departure lounge and seatingAs you may be aware, our airport has recently revealed stylish new passenger seating and created three brand new seating areas in our busy departure lounge. The changes have increased our capacity by 40 per cent.The improvements come as part of the wider transformation project and will now make room for over 1000 passengers in the main departure lounge. A dedicated family seating area has also been created within the departure lounge for groups travelling with young children.

They are that "seats"...but stylish & actually help provide for 40% more customers...
STN has been challenged previously for not providing adequate numbers of seats inc WOWZZ himself in his post #1389 Nov`18 which he includes the following in a disparagement of the facilities -"endless shops but no seats".
STN cannot win in some contradictory eyes but must be commended for providing those 550 further "seats".

More seating to come soon within ‘Wetherpsoons’ extension and ‘Burger Kings’ new seating area, which is the space ‘Next’ had until recently.
Also all the new seats in the main departure lounge have usb charging points built in.

I was merely commenting that the seats seem to have been designed to ensure passengers are unable to stretch out in them. I'm glad that finally STN is providing the extra seating that is long overdue, given the meteoric rise in pax over the last couple of years. Once the new multistorey carpark is finished, with hopefully a decent valet parking option, and security and border control queues are reduced, it will once again become my preferred airport, as it was 10 years ago.

My last two journeys through Stansted have been seemless with regards to outbound security screening and inbound immigration. I have experienced the horrendous queues in the past, the last time was about three years ago though to be honest. It’s been either reasonable or very good since. I have stood in queues for much longer at both Gatwick and Heathrow in the last six months.

The seating, which looks like it received inspiration from a park bench, has no doubt been installed to encourage sore arse syndrome. After 5 minutes or so passengers will want to stand up so always creating vacant seating.

BA Mykonos (JMK)
Just a shame it’s outbound Sunday and inbound Saturday. 6 or 13 nights. No good for the smaller Greek tour operators to use as a lot of their accommodations are tied into 7/10/11 or 14 night durations. Great for the independent traveler, especially so if you’re happy to fly into one London airport and back into another.

Multistorey Carpark
Can anyone update me on the progress of the carpark please. I thought completion date was around May, but the STN website is showing it as an available parking option.

I have heard it is already selling well and the airport is now considering using multi-storey car parks at long and mid stay parking areas too.
Thanks for the update. The fact that reservations are being taken would imply that work is on track, but, unfortunately I tend to be a little cynical with regard to completion dates!

Do note that BA2335 is on a Sunday, and BA2334 is on a Saturday. The Sunday inbound is to LCY, and the Saturday outbound is from LCY.
