They could adapt. But what’s in it for them? Sure the U.K. foreign office can send a telex or whatever to the Spanish government objecting. But the U.K. has no levers to pull here. Spanish and EU...

In fairness the UK is not part of the EU - the UK is a third country in exactly the same way the USA, UAE, Mongolia or Argentina would be. The UK chose this path, to blame the Spanish for long queues...

I don’t think so. But with hand luggage only it would be difficult to prove you arrived with good time to spare. I guess you could do a GDPR for the time you scanned through security?

Yes things have changed. But other airports seem to manage this much better. We’re not seeing social media posts with queues at the likes of Palma, Malaga or Barcelona, for example.

I dont see why boarding with steps is a safety issue? Airports all across the world, outside North America, manage it just fine. What are the safety and security risks you perceive, I think H&S and...

One strike and out seems a bit unfair and I wonder how it compares to other airports?

That’s true indeed. I think STN is omniserv from memory. The reasons FR and Jet2 give for taking more control over handling are fairly similar though - handling specialists could not give us the...

Interestingly its not just STN, Azur is at 25 Spanish airports and they also mention Poland as well. They have always self-handled at DUB too. Jet2 self-handle at LBA, MAN, EMA, STN, Murcia,...

If the freight has gone all the way to BOH, it does suggest that the usual suspects for freight are unable to accommodate either. If the flight had gone to EMA or STN the usual conspiracy could have...

But what’s the logic of putting all easyJet and Ryanair passengers through T3 to bus them to T1 or midfield stands? As one poster mentioned LCC passengers tend to spend time and money at...

Seems quite the can of worms has been opened on the T1/T3 future. I don’t think Ryanair, easyJet or even BA give much of a care to the overall passenger experience. They all operate from some fairly...

There was some mention that FR were keen on T3 because of the proximity to the runway, although if I recall Ryanair were a T2 tenant for many years? I suppose what is clear is that the original plans...
