London Stansted Airport - STN
London's fastest growing airport, has won high praise in the past for its spacious and people-friendly terminal. As its popularity grows, however, it is becoming a victim of its own success and is now addressing the problems of expansion.
Stansted airport was opened, to much acclaim, in 1991 when the airport handled under 2 million passengers each year. As it heads towards its present capacity the strains are starting to show. It is no longer a place where you can guarantee a seat in the lounge at peak times or a relatively short line at the check-in desk.
Stansted airport has started construction of a second terminal, alongside the existing facility.
The airport is located 48km (30 miles) northeast of central London and currently has one terminal.
Money and communications
There are ATMs located at the bureau de change, adjacent to the International Arrivals end of the concourse. There is also an Internet exchange.
Eating and drinking
There are various restaurants and bars.
Shopping
There are shops and duty-free outlets, although passengers may be asked to show a boarding pass, or other identification of travel.
