Using Liverpool Airport (Questions & Reviews)

[Silvercity]

I love the automated announcements at the Spanish airports. They're usually done in English and the language at the destination airport. Is it the same at LPL?

Only English here, so far anyway. I travel through the airport frequently, so I think this new system is pretty new. I'm watching my time as I do this, my flight is at 14.10 !

I also used to like the old fashioned indicator display systems which used to flick round at speed. You saw them at airports and train stations. Something about the sound and movement they created. Bit geaking that I suppose !!!

I like it. I was here about a month ago, but I didn't notice it then. Right it's go to gate for me.

I have to admit to liking those too and I'm sure Leeds City Station has moved away from the large plasma screens back to something similar to that. I might be wrong.
Anyway, why not foreign languages? That's something the really annoys me about the UK, We are so inward looking and expect everyone to speak English, which of course many do but still, we should make for of an effort.

I agree with you, now you mentioned it re the languages, I may get a message to someone because the UK is very poor on such things. Even on trains on the continent you will get English announcements .

They used to have those clatter board destination screen at Liverpool Lime Street, but not anymore , all digital, it's just not the same. I think those types of screens just had a feeling of ' travel ' ...well did to me.

Passing through the airport today. A lot of construction going on in departures . Obviously do the work now during quieter period of the year. Also work being carried out in security. Hasn't delayed me in my passage through terminal .

lane 4 and 5 in security are due to reopen next week with the new equipment. 1 to 3 has been done, 6 is delayed due to availability of parts.

I travelled through the airport yesterday early morning, which was my first experience of the new security machine arrangement. The airport was busy and I thought it would take a while to get through the search, but no, was done in 10-15 mins. No one taking liquids out of their bags did seem to make the process easier.
