Lol

I give myself 3 hrs safety net before my flight to check and settle in w/a small overnight bag carryon for those 'just in case' times.

Half of the passengers on our flight to Rhodes arrived with no luggage. A complete failure STN_Airport. Who knows when we might get out bags! Complete chaos.

DON’T BOOK unnecessary flights… Make your Holiday a local adventure, support local businesses, explore our amazing history and countryside, reduce your carbon emissions and do your bit to help our stressed and distressed planet

It was a bloody disaster. Hours in the queue. There was almost no staff, plenty of 'managers'. The working staff will quit soon too.

Oh dear how said never mind happy days

Stansted Airport is falling apart. I landed there recently and not a single working ATM in the whole airport.

Mercury retrograde 💞
