Cafe Nero is full of BAA people sitting yakking. No room for passengers!
Rubbish connections experience. Despite arriving on a UK domestic flight, had to go through security again, which was 1 lane run by incompetent idiots.
Thomas MeijerAugust 31, 2014Had to spend 2 hours here and couldn't find any free wifi. Plus the food is really expensive
Orakarn KatelynMay 30, 2014I hate the security check system. Not only they never actually catch terrorists from this sort of system but also causing trouble for real passengers :(
EmyleeSeptember 12, 2014If the wifi doesn't load right away, don't waste your battery. I've wasted over two hours and entire battery trying to get on.
Martin BossevFebruary 9, 2020Awful, crowded, stinky, dirty, noisy, airport. Awful service - disorganized, lazy and grumpy employees all over the place. I'd avoid at all costs.
Wow. PM flights seem to be the way forward. Hardly anyone about! :)
UKBA officiers at Gatwick are the only and the most rude out of all London Airports
Maxx RobertsonApril 30, 20112 people working customs....... at least 80 people in line....should've brought a snack!!!
It's an ok airport. Not as new or modern.
Simon DudleyApril 27, 2013I wonder if the border agency people get paid a bonus to be as miserable as possible.
@LEGJuly 1, 2011London Gatwick airport welcomes you today with long long line to the passport control point
Kit BroughApril 7, 2011You have to get the gatwick express to London, just to get out of here asap... It's about as fun as being kicked in the head
A well deserved check in for those of us stuck waiting on the Tarmac at gatwick.
Fair enough airport but terrible designed and chaotic rail port.
