I love small airports. Newquay has services to Bristol, London Gatwick and the Scilly Isles. Arrival is the easiest it could be: down the steps and 50m across the tarmac. Plane to arrivals in 30 seconds (admittedly I had no checked luggage). Departures are equally simple, though they're strict but efficient on security, and there's nowhere to loiter if you've forgotten to finish your bottle of water. In the departure lounge, there's a surprisingly large cafe and they offer WiFi too. Again, from check in to departures is a 25m walk. The only downside is there's no level access to the plane. The only other suggestion is that their car park needs expansion. But otherwise a nice facility. read more

There's not much in the way of facilities here, apart from a wee snack bar at the departures entrance that serves fairly mediocre coffee. Mind you, things might improve sometime in the future as they are raising money for airport development by forcing you to pay an 'Airport Development Fee' of £5 for the privilege of leaving the place - the first UK airport I've been to that has done this, and something that FlyBe seems to have forgotten to mention during their online check-in process. Or else it was in such small print that I didn't see it on the web page. Why can't they just get the airlines to levy that via the ticket price at the time? It wasn't exactly publicised at the airport either as we walked straight past the pay machines. Having passed through the very plain-looking door to the departure security area, we were then sent back out by a very officious security man to pay our five pounds. On our return, he then forced Herself to squash her handbag into her cabin luggage, which although technically correct according to FlyBe rules hadn't happened on the way down; then we were subjected to the most rigorous security check that I have experienced at any airport, national or international, in the last few years. Shoes & belts off, bags emptied, pat-down, the works. Everything apart from a cavity search. Small airports seem to be the worst at this - maybe the staff don't get enough practice, or they're just bored and take delight in stressing out their passengers? Whatever, it's made me less inclined to fly to this airport in future. Meh. read more

This airport is trying to be bigger, it's trying to be better, but it's definitely not there yet. You are forced to pay a £5 fee for leaving the airport, something that the staff pretty rudely point out before you get to security forcing you to go back and buy the £5 ADF ticket. The security is slow, I'm not sure if that's just because their security system is slow (looks like it was inherited from Heathrow's 1990s security stock) or the staff just don't care! Once you get through to the waiting area, there is 1 coffee shop. To be fair, this has a pretty decent range including alcoholic drinks, magazines, etc... There is a good amount of seating for more people than probably pass through the airport in the whole day. A slight redeeming feature is free WiFi in the airport. read more
