24 hours in Valencia airport in 2008, prompting the wig out the other end

Surprised southend is so low. Fantastic little airport if you have the opportunity to fly from there, and less than an hr on the train from Liverpool st

Worst airport: Rhodes

  • No air conditioning anywhere, which isn’t right for a Mediterranean airport
  • Every flight ever is delayed…
  • …there’s very few seats in departures…
  • …and the combination of those three things means that everyone is extremely grumpy
  • Weird double queuing system, where you queue up to check in then go to a different queue to check in your bags
  • Hole-in-the-ground style toilets. No soap, elderly-man-with-halitosis hand dryers

only been through Stansted a handful of times but each time security was chronically understaffed and I almost missed my flight despite arriving in plenty of time

Dublin’s pretty nice but it’s so badly laid out in that you have to walk for 20 minutes to get anywhere

That’s happened to me at Heathrow, Gatwick, Birmingham and Luton, but never Stansted.

You must be all be doing it wrong somehow.

Liverpool John Lennon airport is often overlooked in the terrible airport game too. Never seen people get ejected from an airport for being drunk before (at 6 in the morning)

Very few useful destinations, and it takes too long to get there compared to City/Heathrow/Gatwick.

Gets away with it because it’s quite cute. Reminds me of East Midlands a few years ago.

I used to wonder why it’s Leeds Bradford International Airport and not Leeds AND Bradford International airport. Then I realised no one wants an airport with an acronym of LABIA.

Most nerve racking phase of flight:

  • Taxiing to take off
  • Take off
  • The bit in the middle
  • Landing
  • Taxiing after landing

AIrports are like tiny colonies where people are miserable and excited in equal measure

Taxiing to take off is the worst because you’ve still got ages left on the plane and you’re in the longest stretch between having access to the toilet.

Smallest airport you’ve been through?
Mine would be either Coventry which was basically a portacabin with a tressle table as a canteen, or Douglas in IoM which was also quite basic

Landing is the worst part from a fear of dying perspective, but then there’s the relief that you’re going to be allowed off the flying death tube soon.

someone requested a cup of coffee as the plane was making its approach to land during my last flight (which was fulfilled).

People who buy things on short haul flights are literal scum
