Luton Airport - bringing the 3rd World experience to you. (wafted here from Paradise ???)

Anyone wanting to experience squalor, traffic chaos, organisational incompetence and people being treated as cattle need look no further than Luton Airport. What a car-crash. Apparently being up-graded – so that’s alright then. Market/trader stalls in the drop-off area – partly because of reburb, mostly because it fits with their image. Security clearance as long as any anywhere. Lounge wholly inadequate for numbers of people.

On return, 30 minutes to get off an EasyJet plane because no bus available to transfer. You’d understand if this came out of the blue, but this same scheduled flight lands every night at the same time – is the bus 30 minutes late every night?

And answer from EasyJet is speak to Menzies (ground handler) ; answer from Menzies – speak to Luton Airport. Never anything more appropriate – you may as well speak to concrete and tarmac.

Regrettably, thinking was being clever with money, have booked Mark and myself to Amsterdam for the Utrecht FM show end of Jan – aaarrrrggghhh – can I justify writing it off? Will give it one more go – if it’s bad, will impose ban on company travel via the Toilet of Bedfordshire.
