I guess I am just spoiled - well ok with rather limited destination choices - however that said and done for example - can leave my office or house - get to Gib Airport within 10 minutes - check in - pass security and be airbourne within 1 hour of leaving office/house!

With Iberia flying from Gib as well its certainly better - for example leaving Gib at 13.50 Tuesday - connecting in Madrid and should be on the ground Amsterdam by 18.30. Certainly saves the treck up to Malaga - loco flight with Transavia -(and therefore drive and longer check in requirements).

Guess when in UK just got to count to 10...although again judging by replies so far BHX does seem like a good alternative to Londons finest and not so finest!

BHX every time where poss.
Under an hour on the train from Oxford.
Free link to terminal every 2 mins.
1hr 15 mins by road and much cheaper car parks than any London airport.
Security much quicker.
No brainer.

....and for the LoCos just carry on a bit further up the M42 to EMA (which I guess is Slim Slag's favourite Regional Airport..?)

Agree - I did Oxford to east midlands in about 1:20 on a friday afternoon! Great base with some very silly fares.
