I don’t think there’s anything particularly new here, but always good to get a more recent overview of the airport.

Hi, are you going to the community meeting next week?

Hi, are you going to the community meeting next week?

I haven’t applied. When is it?
I have doubts as to the importance of puff-piece meetings like that to be honest.
They tend to elicit more heat than light. People are polarised on both sides and nobody changes their minds. I support the airport, but not to the extent that I can’t be critical when I see/hear about things that I don’t agree with.
The wife flew to Dublin this morning and sent this text at 5.52am
“Omg it’s chaotic here in the airport. I’ve never seen it as bad.
We had to book fast track.”
Fortunately she hadn’t booked into the “lounges” so the experience wasn’t completely a disastrous one.
Let’s hope the revamp improves the customer experience when it has been completed.

It's more a question of the ongoing refurbishment works causing problems. Its bound to happen. No pain, no gain.

airport was a breeze when I travelled to Paris on the first departure on Sunday morning a couple of weeks ago.

And this was my point in a previous post. Are the airport giving enough "we apologise for the inconvenience" notices. I haven't used LBA recently so anyone able to confirm this
