Dennis A. Van PouckeMay 22, 2015Do not take the easyBus into town. Probably the worst and least efficient airport shuttle in Western Europe. If this wasn't Europe, they would probably call this company a scam.
Nicholas OlDecember 2, 2011Not overly impressed with the internet here.. Any secret spots that have good net?
Philip SpenceFebruary 3, 2013Avoid the biometric scanners. The queue can be a lot slower than the regular passport control.
KyzeMarch 18, 2015I actually liked the north terminal. Everything was great in my experience. Really fast shuttle train between terminals. The Thameslink train is a nice compromise between the Express and the bus.
This is Gatwick Airport, Change here for the rest of the world
TW ✈️👸🏻October 2, 2018My preferred airport in London, unfortunately, AA doesn’t fly in/out anymore. :(
Adrian V.July 4, 2013Beware the forced 3 minute, almost circular, detour through the entire duty free rip off retail shop. No option to avoid that I could see.
Queues for "other passports" arrivals are just awful unless you managed to run in with prefilled landing card. 40 mins in, barely walked the half of it.
Sally MesserApril 20, 2012Their assistance is far superior to that of Heathrow. Shame it's such a bastard to get to.
- Mark BaarsMarch 15, 2010You can only smoke outside and even there in designated areas. You need a smoke if you don't want to get suicidal ideas at this place man...
Hot, fluorescent, sullen, grey, slow, harrowing hovel to wait around in.
Graham ChismonSeptember 16, 2011The security in the south terminal is an absolute joke. Give yourself plenty of time.
Keep you arms and legs inside your seat or the trolley will get you
