Undercover in the UK's worst airports - Which?

[@which]

What are your worst airport experiences? Were they bad enough to make you fly from somewhere else in future?

[@thomasnorton2679]

I've never had any problems with Belfast International

[@patriciamckeown1816]

I’ve went there about 8 times so far and I also had no problems

[@greek9244]

I’m from Belfast and it’s terrible

[@jclad10]

I’ve went there4 times mostly with jet2 and it’s been brilliant not even a delay

[@eirelybird]

Morgan Green im from belfast too and it’s always been fine

[@elliewaide2651]

No problems

[@codymccann3587]

From someone who is from Portadown (20-30 minutes away from BFS) Northern ireland, Belfast International has indeed changed which is a good thing. Flew out a month ago to Birmingham and my, from I went out to Bulgaria in 2019 there’s been major improvements!

[@lucyburbidge1068]

When Belfast international is the only proper airport in Northern Ireland 😭although I like it cause it means I’m going on holiday

[@greek9244]

There’s Derry~Londonderry airport, Belfast INT and Belfast CITY. The best is probably the city bc it’s modern but it’s not very large. The international is an alright size but very outdated

[@lucyburbidge1068]

@@greek9244 yea only problem with city is that it doesn’t do as many international flights is if you were looking to travel more abroad than the uk you would have to go to Aldergrove or drive a few hours to Dublin.

[@lucyburbidge1068]

@@greek9244 but yea it’s incredibly outdated just needs a good modernising and it wouldn’t be too bad

[@seniorduds]

@@lucyburbidge1068 I kinda enjoy how shit is lmao, the security is normally quick to pass through as well which I like

[@nikobelic4251]

You guys have never been to La Guardia

[@kandrew932]

I have travelled through Birmingham , Stansted and Luton at 6am in the morning during the summer- all were heaving with passengers. I find this survey biased.Yes Luton is a victim of its own success due to its popularity and location. You might as well put it bottom of your list for the next few years as well but it won’t stop its popularity.

[@Tmccreight25Gaming]

As a resident of Antrim and a frequent user of BFS I am embarrassed to see the state of it.

[@greek9244]

I live in belfast and I see belfast INT and Belfast City flights every day. I gotta say there are some crazy rare planes that fly here and huge planes. The actual international building itself is super outdated Also there are only flights to parts of Europe, Africa and a small section of Asia ( Turkey and Cyprus )

[@heyzus]

Why has it taken so long to advise the world about aldergrove, it's been a dump since it opened!

[@ilike3v3rything83]

Ah Belfast “International’ Airport - I live 10 miles from it and I drive 80 miles to Dublin Airport before I would consider using it…Belfast “International’ Airport is nothing short of an embarassment and has been for years.

[@haroldinho9930]

I was waiting for someone to talk about Belfast International. If you don’t want to call it international you can say Belfast Aldergrove Airport.

[@JBJETWATCH]

I live in Northern Ireland and I usually fly out of Belfast International Airport. I agree, it's a very outdated and boring Airport. I think there's a terminal extension coming to it next summer though

[@AS256]

Nah Belfast is best

Same it's a good airport

[@mainaccount4821]

Normally travel from Liverpool or Newcastle which are fast, modern and amazing. But one time we saved and travelled from Manchester Terminal 3. Wrong choice, Terminal Dated and Arrivals was disgusting and Dated. Also, they lost our baggage at arrivals and put it on the wrong carrousel which made lots of other people confused. Will be sticking to trusted Airports

[@ikeabiscuits5481]

Every time I’m flying I go to Belfast international airport (it is the closest) and I have been going there forever. I have to say I am fully satisfied with Belfast international. It’s not that bad. I mean, I think it’s good, I wonder what Heathrow would be like. Although at Belfast International, the security isn’t the best, the line is way to long.

[@dylanartt]

I agree, I haven't had a single problem with Belfast International every time I've used it. Obviously it's not the most modern or well designed but it does the job and it's a satisfactory airport.

[@aidan4473]

I love how no one has bullied prestwick yet. It’s a small airport and is actually quite nice but the terminal dates from the 50s and on,y Ryanair operate there so the revamps have been pretty low budget. Oh and did I mention about the price of the food in the only restaurant

[@jennaatherley971]

My trip to kos airport it was so tiny

[@johnentwhistlesurelysamsun1840]

Pre-covid, there are so many people travelling and increasing 10 fold and will just go on getting worse, its almost an imposible task to improve facilities, however hard they try, as soon as they enlarge say an airport terminal it will never keep up with the demand, more and more travellers all the time!!

[@carrotclaret]

I fly regularly to Portugal & the 3 major airports there are all well staffed & spotlessly clean. This cannot be said for uk airports which in my opinion are poorly staffed & filthy at best.

[@milotv120]

BFS is actually pretty decent, easy to get around and no major drawbacks except security really.

[@greek9244]

Security is pretty good in my opinion. It has alright shops, it’s just outdated and needs a modernisation .

[@lucaskeys7919]

I have went went many many times and alternative is great.So many famous planes have landed there like air force one

[@greek9244]

Ok but Belfast International has been done up and is acc not that bad but it is quite boring - I’m from Belfast and often visit

John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
