No, & I doubt they ever will.

Lydd’s Terminal is receiving an internal makeover. See post 130 for external view.

New access to departures with monitor screens either side of the entrance.

Still a bit sparse but the cafe has now reopened. The check-in desks have disappeared.

Section still closed off

Outdoor viewing area but without seating. This area looks the same but last year it was closed off.

As Air Alderney's accounts are now almost two years overdue, its website security certificate has expired, its one aircraft has been transferred into private hands (see G-INFO) and is subject to a No Fly declaration from 15 June 2023, and in view of its long record of making announcements which then come to nothing, I wouldn't expect these facilities to be used for the advertised services any time soon.

The Home Office is currently using Lydd for a Dash8 from PAL Airlines (Canada) to carry out surveillance of the Channel. Scheduled services are probably not coming.

Wears a rather smart all-grey scheme with "Home Office" titles.

I saw it parked in a hangar today. I wondered what it was.

It seems that Le Touquet airport in northern France is to be renamed after Queen Elizabeth II
I wonder if Lyddair might revive their scheduled flights between Lydd and Le Touquet ? Or perhaps there might be a route from Southend or London City on another airline ?
