    Back in 2012 my family and I flew home to the UK from Portugal and landed at London City.

    We happened to be on the same flight as the UK Olympic athletics team. All super nice people. Better still, because of the athletes we got a priority passport control queue and the quickest baggage reclaim I’ve ever experienced - the bags were on the carousel before we even got there.

    So, yeah, really enjoyed London City Airport but I definitely recommend flying with a team of Olympeans whenever possible.

      Awesome. I am - at best, out of the loop in entertainment news: and at worst, culturally retarded - so I was sat at LCY with a colleague and he was pointing out famous chefs, golfers, public figures every five minutes.

      I was still trying to figure out how anyone affords either to eat or drink at the airport without being on business expenses.
