Cheryl AnkrahJune 12, 2011Bored, in the Emirates cattle holding area. Never go to the gate when emirates say time to board. U have at least 30 mins extra to spend in duty free.
Don't turn up early for EasyJet flights - they let passengers for earlier flights jump the queue...
Reg SorrellMay 10, 2011Had to be one of the worst airports I have been to. Ugly, sterile, unwelcoming atmoshpere, no Sky Sports and blimin' expensive, apart from that good links to the rest of the world.

Customs are very rude. Barcelona is in Europe, apparently they don't know the rest of European airports apply the same rules.
Only Luton is worse than this airport in the London area.
Don't bother looking for the EasyJet Club Lounge - it would suck if you found it anyway!!
Can't use the toilets until the plane finishes getting refuelled. Why is that? Hmm
Avoid excess baggage by taking a massive hand luggage suitcase like the bastards did before us in the queue. Wish I'd thought of that
Sarah SpencerSeptember 23, 2011Went the check in only to find out that my flight to Canada is delayed by 4 hours. What is there to do in this hell hole for 6 hours? Can't be bothered going back to central London. FML!
Long term parking not so dear with a Gatwick passport.
Mickaël BillyJanuary 31, 2014the worst airport in Europe for its accessibility its security checks its bad service and its shops ..
Gatwick charge you for wifi, they charge you for a luggage trolley, the toilets are filthy and the shopping is poor.
- Stephen McGillJuly 17, 2018Just a horrible airport not fit for purpose with all the recent cosmetic changes (shops etc) it’s like lipstick on a dinosaur!
