Hannah EdenFebruary 26, 2018Absolutely the worst airport experience at Luton. It’s so cold, cramped, and generally unwelcoming and it didn’t help that we had our gate changed without anyone telling us :(
Elaine DJanuary 2, 2012Take the priority lane for £3. Otherwise a very long wait is what you can expect!!
Sam CarewSeptember 11, 2014There's some power sockets for charging devices at the over priced internet kiosk in front of Starbucks
Ryanair flyers, do not forget to do passport check at the check-in desk!
Gert de HeulNovember 20, 2013Don't use the internet, it is damn slow and is all the time disconnecting. This also counts for the paid version (spectrum)
This place sucks the life out of every living thing. Security is completely incompetent, dropping and flipping trays - spending more time chatting to each other than working.
AdrianoJune 7, 2019Probably the worst airport supposed to be in "London area", as it is far from the capital and there are quite few good options of shuttle.
FaghmaAugust 20, 2012Really pissed off that you can't take a coffee on the shuttle bus! Just bought a coffee and had to bin it - MiklósApril 23, 2016After arrival, don't expect to be done with everything in half an hour. Especially with passport control.
Priority pass is now £4 but well worth it. Avoid the huge wait at security.
Izabela BorzeckaJune 17, 2012There is a new Security Zone 2 with a separate entrance, not from the departures. Be aware!
Ian JefferyNovember 19, 2012Appalling airport. Long stay car park 5 min drive. Waited 45 mins for the bus there and missed flight. Advertised 10-15 min intervals. Use Stansted is my advice.
Peter JamesSeptember 30, 2012Airport CarParkz, cheapest and transfer time quicker than long term parking at airport!
Jānis BukšsOctober 31, 2020Security control disallowed to have a tiny(50ml) snowball in hand luggage claiming that the item has no approved reference of liquid volume. Asking what is “approved”, the woman refused to reply! WTF
A terrible airport that lets you pay to relieve some of the more terrible parts. Always get priority security and _always_ take note of the name of the security attendants.
carcher 8September 23, 2012Don't pay to check the weight of your bag, use a check-in counter that's not in use!
This airport is fit only for cattle, so be prepared for rude staff, massive queued and unmanned counters. £3 for the Priority Lane will be the best money you'll ever spend.
DanielaMay 3, 2013The worst airport in London,even maybe in Europe!!! Everything is super slow and messy. This is my last trip with Wizzair and from/to Luton!!!
Kristian JohnsonDecember 17, 2014Really poor for departures. Staff unfriendly and way to gates is unclear (left after security, across then diagonal when you get the the end of the shopping area). For security, leave 25mins minimum.
James VickeryOctober 27, 2013£2 for a trolley in the arrivals hall...that isn't refundable! Come on.
Parking mid term nightmare goto bus stop c to ensure that you get on bus
Nikita LukjanovAugust 9, 2013Small liquid plastic bags are now not free, but 1 pound for a pair. Keep in mind
Consider flying through Birmingham next time. Luton tries hard toi be the most unwelcoming airport in the country
Security was a complete nightmare, totally inefficient. Then they told me my zip bag is too big and I had to buy a new one, which they didn't even use! What a rip off!
Brendan ArndtApril 23, 2011But the priority security pass like all the other tips say. Best 3 pounds I ever spent.
Oh, I forgot to mention how rude and aloof the security and airport staff are.
Chris PhillipsSeptember 8, 2018Better than it used to be. But security takes forever, even when it's not busy. You get what you pay for, I guess.
