...of my recent visit to Luton, I take it all back - sort out the flight supplements and I need never cross the Severn Bridge for a flight again. Apparently TBI now have a major shareholding in Luton (as in Cardiff) hopefully this will sort out the problems.
SUMMARY
Disappointing, small, dirty and almost shut, save for a few planes roaming around the tarmac. I will fly from there again if I have to, but it certainly would not be my first choice, better ...

Advantages: Expanding rapidly with great destinations Disadvantages: Current roadworks willmake better but can be nightmare at moment
Well, after writing a few reviews on other airports around Europe based on just one or two visits, I thought that it was about time I wrote one on my 'home' airport of London Luton (LTN).
Luton is found about 30 miles north of London and is the 4th largest London airport after Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted. It was opened in 1938 and was a fighter base during WWII until it started commercial operations. Traditionally seen predominantly as a charter ... ...when several low cost operators, easyJet in particular, started setting up bases at the airport. Today it sees over 9m people pass through every year as well as being one of the foremast private aviation fields in the south of the UK. Earlier this year the airport started its first transatlantic flight with a daily service to Newark, New York being operated by Silverjet, an entirely business class airline operating out of the worlds first private ...

Advantages: Easy to get to, wide choice of destinations Disadvantages: Overpriced for the captive audience
Some of you may well remember the awful advert for Luton Airport, featuring Lorraine Chase responding to the above line with "Naaah, Loootun Airport." Thankfully for all of us in the town, things have come on from the days when the height of glamour was a Cinzano and lemonade. For those of you not in the South East, Luton Airport is situated about three miles from Junction 10 of the M1, and is within thirty miles of London. Recent additions include ... ...- Luton Airport Parkway. Firstly the new station. This is still over a mile from the terminal, but is serviced by a fairly reliable bus link. You can see the bus coming a mile off, as it is normally covered in bright orange Easyjet logos (More on them later) Many locals cannot see the point of the new station, as it is not much closer than the central rail link, and an improved bus service may well have sufficed. Still, who are we to decree where ...

Advantages: Short check in queues (midweek PM). Organised layouts Disadvantages: Web terminals needed.
Luton Airport is located a short distance from Junction 10 of the M1 motorway. Geographically I'll estimate it as being 40 miles north of the centre of London, and around 20 miles south from Milton Keynes and Northampton.
It is actually known as London-Luton airport, this not something I realised until I used said airport for the first time recently, I suppose this makes it easier for International visitors to identify the airport as being one close ... ...than the other London ports.
Upon arrival to Luton there is a simple colour coded signpost system which directs
you to the parking you need, or alternatively you be just dropping off, or picking up. Either way it is simple to get to the right part of the site!
Depending on length of your trip, or cash available, you can choose from short stay parking (under 24 hours), long stay parking (over 24 hours), long stay prebooked parking, or executive ...

Advantages: close to where I live Disadvantages: just no thought given to the customer
I hadn't been to Luton Airport for about three years until I flew to Majorca from there in June. I heard that they had been making great improvements to the departure lounge and that, indeed, work was still very much in progress. Well was I disappointed with one of our 'premier' package holiday airports? Yep, you bet. What a tip! We were flying out at around midnight. The airport was not too busy. There were a few Easyjet flights going out - all ... ...for the Med. Facilities were desperately limited for the ordinary traveller. They have a 'food court' - a Cafeteria area, Bar and takeaway. But despite the airport being hardly at its busiest point of the season, you couldn't get a seat or a table up there. So, back downstairs to sit on the comfy seats in the main Departure area. Plenty of those, but nothing to do except sit and wait. Oh yes, part of the improvements is a 'traditional pub' that is ...
