    Bad bad bad! Slow passport control, transportation is poor and the airport itself looks like an airbase from the fifties. Try avoiding it if you can.

    Avoid the 24x7 taxi . We had a dirty, uncomfortable taxi that cost is 30% more than the taxi we've booked for our return(a brand new E-class

    Probably the worst airport I’ve ever experienced only one lane was open for 500 people trying to catch their plane didn’t even matter if you are flying business class.

    What a neglected run down place at least at Luton they look like they're trying .. and why does it take so much longer for the UK Border Authority to check passports here compared to other airports?

    Really unpleasant place to be. No free wi-fi. Only few sockets and you need to look very good to find them. And if you are so "lucky" to stay here for the night better take a bottle of scotch with you

    Parking costs are criminally expensive. Park at McDonald's & wait there. Check in queues notoriously bad. Departures area cramped.

    Really not a fun airport. Under staffed. Maybe due to brexit, immigration is slow.

    Poor airport. Too many passengers. Gates for internal flights don't go up until 25 mins before departure. If you arrive early prepare to be bored. Security staff are the rudest outside the US.

    Stansted express train tickets can be done at the platforms area, machines are less crowded there

    The worst airport I've ever been to. Transportation is difficult, staff is unfriendly. Dutyfree has limited options and is relatively expensive. Use other airports if possible.

    Stansted at 5am + Ryanair = nightmare! Queuing chaos and general poor organisation makes it an experience to forget

    Worst experience ever! It takes you around 1h to get through security and they are not able to handle their “high-tech” workflows...
