Any changes to the “huts” when boarding the Ryanair flights? Or should I say have they been replaced? And the immigration hall?

[PPRuNeUser0164]

I am flying in on the 13th with Ryanair, so might see then. I can't see much changing during the current climate.

[MANFAN]

Yes but there has been plenty of time to improve this pre covid.
I flew from Liverpool in September with EasyJet…security was great, however, the new gate areas weren’t fit for purpose. Very little room and lack of seating!

[PPRuNeUser0164]

​​​​​​i haven't used those far gates very often, but when I have I've pretty much boarded straight away, so I've not noticed about seating there.

[MANFAN]

Don’t get me wrong, the experience at Liverpool is mainly pretty good. But last time I was there I noticed how much worse the gate areas are than before around gate 1/2 etc where EasyJet board due to the lack of seating and how close together the gate areas are. And the immigration hall is always overwhelmed at arrival…

[PPRuNeUser0164]

The best departure gates from the passengers point of view are the ones in the terminal proper. The ones that are far flung are less so, and do need attention. I use the airport frequently and tbh arrivals I have never found an issue, I think they could do with more space and I'm sure the powers that be are aware of it. Having said all that I have often been off the plane and indoors having a cuppa in under and hour which is good going by any standards.

I'm not looking to be confrontational but, whilst appreciating that you're entitled to your personsl viewpoint, it's good to know that there are some members who are prepared to post some news on an otherwise fairly quiet thread.

I agree. Certainly seems fine given not much else gets posted on this thread and I think it’s interesting to see them trying other things.

Well, I'm not really a spotter generally. I just considered this to be operational news, which was a bit unusual.
