    Airports

    What airport do you use the most? What do you think of it? Whats your fav airport?

    I use London Gatwick the most. Which is rather annoying, as i live very very close to London Heathrow. I quite like Gatwick though, it has a lot of services, so if you get delayed, then theres loads to do still. Heathrow is the better airport, because its bigger, but its generally only long-haul, buisness, or inter-UK flights. London Gatwick is more commercial.

    Manchester, really convenient and the only one i use really as it goes the majority of places plus inter UK, it also goes TO Knock in Ireland which is dead close to my family. The terminals are quite close together and there is loads of things to do in delays.

    Used Liverpool John Lennon once, put its a pain to get to from me.

    Naturally I use Dublin Aiport most.. it is a nice enough airport, not many delays.. Cologne airport is better and bigger. Frankfurt has too many checkpoints (4 in total and i have to strip the kids down every checkpoint)..

    We normally use Edinburgh Airport as it's closer to us then Glasgow Airport. But if need's be we do use Glasgow. I Think Edinburgh is my favourite as it is quite big. But i can't say as i can't really remember anything about Glasgow.

    Thank you for the amazing banner Lea

    I like Hannover Airport in Germany. It's all glass fronted and leather seats and its really nice. It's all on one level unlike Newcastle which has some gates down flights of stairs.

    Like Tannie I usually use Edinburgh. Glasgow is much bigger - it has grown enormously over the past few years and is an excellant airport and has heroic baggage handlers such as John Smeaton!

    This summer I had the huge misfortune to be travelling through Glasgow Prestwick airport. For those of you south of the border, Prestwick is about 40 miles from Glasgow.

    The terminal building is decorated with a stickman logo of a man in a 'see you jimmy' tartan tammy. Beside this is the phrase 'Pure Dead Brilliant!' This phrase also decorates the uniform of staff working in the airport.

    This must have sounded like a great idea in some primary school business enterprise class.

    Tacky, you wouldn't believe it!

    I like Tannie and Trinity I normally use Edinburgh Airport whenever possible but if not I use Glasgow. Glasgow is bigger and have more destinations to choose from but Edinburgh is offering more locations and its a fairly good size.

    Thanks to Vicky for my great new banner xxx
