Exciting Journeys Do Not Start Here. Appalling management of security. Over 50 minutes wait with inaccurate wait times displayed, stating 25 mins. Be warned!! The whole thing is arranged around selling fast track. Which isn't faster!! The idea of your lovely holiday starting with a soul destroying queue is a fine example of the contempt which we are held in. I would loved to have spent some money airside on food and drink but only 1 of 4 lanes was open so didn't have time. I have been to many airports and this is by far one of the worst security processes I've and my traveling compansions have experienced. Just awful. No staff about and unesscary slow processes, broken machinery on one lane but staff didn't have the mental capacity to open another lane instead just stood about. They shouted at people without cause, rude and poorly organised. Worryingly the conditions in the security area presented a significant risk as staff were not being diliengent enough nor able to manage the public effectively. The only toliet was out if order. The gates area was messy and dirty the staff were rude and the many stores with tills closed... 'because they are'. Very poor service. The whole security breakdown occurred at a crucial time due to poor maintenance of equipment and poor planning. The whole things is a sign of poor management and leadership. If you want to start your holiday in a hot, uncomfortabke queue, be late for your flight, be shouted out, be stressed then book at LBA. If not, then book at Manchester Airport which you manage to get through in under 15 mins.

Could be better managed! Our flight was cancelled and it took them 1 hour to get their act together and even then many of us passengers walked around like headless chickens trying to figure out where to go. And only one counter open for check in and also the same counter later for flight changes! Ridiculous. F&B wise no issues - plenty of options inside pass security. Arrival hall has 2 options and it's good enough for sandwiches and cakes, etc. Important: if you're taking uber/taxis. Uber cars are disallowed from entering the drop off point at the terminal and can only go as far as the open car park drop off area which is a 3-5 minute walk and it was awful as it started pouring rain and the wind was slowing us down quite a bit. But Uber is cheaper. Around 18-20 pounds from city. Only (some) Arrow Taxis are allowed into the terminal drop off point which is directly in front of the entrance. So you can download the arrow taxi app and under the driver instructions you need to clearly state terminal entrance drop off. Remember not all arrow drivers have security clearance and those who don't will drop you off at the same place as Uber drivers do too. Arrow costs more around 30-35 pounds from city. If you're flying into Bradford Airport, you can get a taxi(only arrow) from the taxi counter once you're out in the arrival hall.

I have never had such a bad experience at an airport like Leeds Bradford! It is very dirty and chaotic. On arrival we had to go to a very small baggage carousel where luggage from three flights had to be collected. On the return flight to Schiphol, it turned out that there were far too few seats. Then only two desks were opened for check-in. The other desks remained closed. It was very slow and the staff clearly thought that was very funny. At security I had to take off my slippers, very inconvenient with gout. I was also not allowed to bring a bottle of water and my bag was checked for drugs, unbelievable. After I had handed in my shoulder bag I had to go back to the back of the queue. The staff is super unfriendly and unprofessional. Even after me and a colleague went to eat something, we suddenly had to go to another room because they wanted to clean. There was no indication in the lounge from which gate we would fly. It was very stuffy. In the end I saw in the app which gate it was, while there was still nothing to see on the board. Even the pilot I met knew nothing. The flight was also delayed an hour. In short, a very poorly functioning airport.

The worst experience I have ever had at an airport - ever! Please read this and take note. This airport is an absolute ripoff. I dropped my wife off this morning, flying to the USA via Dublin - only the road forks immediately outside the terminal. Which way do you go, you may be asking yourself? Well……..0-10 minutes immediately outside the airport is going to cost you SIX POUNDS! Are you kidding me? Like so many others have posted, I inadvertently ended up in a bus only lane………so reversed up to select a different lane and drop my wife off at departures. There are cameras everywhere to catch your Registration Plate……so you are paying ££££ whichever way you go. Distasteful signs warn of ‘stopping’ anywhere on the roadway, for fear of a massive fine in the mail. This airport is WORSE than Heathrow. Do yourself a favor, avoid this airport like the plague. Huge ripoff, money making scam. Should be illegal. I hope this airport gets shut down. Leeds-Bradford Airport Management YOU NEED TO DO BETTER. THIS IS SHAMEFUL.

The airport itself is great, good and affordable parking services, great variety of shops and restaurants, serves plenty of flights to plenty of locations in Europe and is usually the cheapest airport to travel off if you live around the area of Yorkshire. Its only downsides are the overcrowding (which to be fair was planned to overcome by building a Terminal 2, though that project was scrapped for some reason) and the relatively annoying road to the airport itself. Even if you're driving from Leeds, there's a load of cameras and 40MPH speed limits and shenanigans that you need to deal with along the way. Also no mass transit connection like metro or tram, only a bus that follows the same slow route. Isn't too bad, I wouldn't avoid flying from it if it's the cheapest option but also nowhere near as impressive as an airport that I would rate 5 stars like the newly built Berlin Brandenburg. Deserves a 4 star.

This is a great local airport for us. Staff are friendly and helpful. The airport could be so much more but is being restricted by local residents objecting to increased night flying and other issues (like expansion of the airport by adding a secobd runway). We use the "Meey & Greet" parking service which (while not cheap) ensures your car is outside the Terminal when you return from holiday. The 2 lounges are excellent value with The Yorkshire Lounge catering for families and supplying endless breakfast butties, cereals, hot drinks, wine, beer & spirits. The 1492 Lounge caters for Adults Only and has a breakfast menu allowing you to select a hot meal as well as cereals, fruit, soft drinks, tea, coffee and wine, beer & spirits. A bit more expensive than The Yorkshire Lounge but if (like us) you're kids are grown up (or you don't have them) well worth the extra for the peace & quiet.

It's convenient not having to travel to Manchester all the time, BUT this airport is small, too small, especially for the amount of travellers, this airport its claustrophobic. We struggled to find seats or anywhere to eat waiting for our flight. Worse was arriving home at 3am with an extremely small baggage reclaim area and waiting long periods for cases with a mounting number of flights. People were constantly asked to move by border police but overcrowding was a real problem. The security waits have improved though. Calling it an international airport is maybe a bit too ambitious. Parking and charges are scandalous even if they are aligned with other airports. One plus was the Jet2 checking in area with Staff being friendly and helpful.

I'm sorry to say this about my 'local' airport but my recent visit was not enjoyable at all. The airport is absolutely filthy, circulation spaces, toilet facilities and security were all in need of a deep clean. There seemed to be no fresh air being circulated, it was hot (on a relatively cool day outside) stuffy, stifling and smelled stale. Security staff were rude and one member of staff was bordering on aggressive, the way he spoke to people in the queue was appalling. Leeds Bradford Airport Management must try harder, bearing in mind the extortionate prices charged for parking, drop off, food and drinks, customers deserve better. This is not a good experience and an unpleasant way to start or end a holiday or business trip.

We arrived at the airport with 15 minutes to spare before the check in desks were due to open for our flight to Amsterdam. The information board said it would be open at 8.05am. There was no indication where to queue and two staff gave us different information. We were told that the illuminated boards behind the check in desks would show the KLM logo. Eventually the many people wanting the flight formed a queue but the desks all showed different airlines. By the time we checked in we just had enough time to try to find our gate before it closed. What a stressful start to our holiday!! The return trip was better but this experience has put us off using this airport again. ☹️

Awful airport now. Used to be quite pleasant, but is an awful experience now. Far too many people rammed in to a small area, meaning there is nowhere near enough seating or areas to eat or drink. Always red hot too. The past 3 times, we’ve been stuck sitting on the plane for over an hour due to not enough busses to ferry us off. This ain’t the airlines fault, but the airports poor management. The past 2 times, we have been waiting over an hour for our luggage to appear on the conveyor belt. Poor service from Swissport, but the airport management should be addressing this, and they don’t seem to be. I’ll certainly be looking to fly from Newcastle or Manchester from now on.

A very small airport with very little to do. Unfortunately our flight was delayed by 12 hours, leaving us sat for 14 hours, with the shops running out of some food items. Their saving grace was the kind, friendly staff at both of the bars; they were talkative and reassuring. Upon return, the airport were incredibly unorganised. We sat on the plane for 15 minutes, waiting for the steps to be attached. Once through security, we went to fetch our bags. They'd unloaded a different flight, who hadn't yet passed through security) onto the conveyorbelt for our flight. They then had 2 flights gathering round another belt. It was utter chaos. Will not be returning.

Efficient, friendly staff and there are no massive terminals to get lost in. Only let down by their short runway, hence lack of long-haul destinations. This compact airport, could also benefit from better connectivity Leeds city centre, as there is no rail link. The closest train station is Horsforth, and even then there is no bus service linking the airport to the station. If the airport’s owner and city council could finally come to some sort of agreement regarding these issues, I reckon Leeds Bradford could become an even more successful asset to the Yorkshire region. Especially now that Doncaster Sheffield is closed.

Gave it a go, usually go to Manchester. How can you have an international airport with such awful transport options. The streets to the airport, (not motorways or dual carriageways) are not capable to make driving an option but there is no other choice. It took 45 mins to drive 5 miles through rawdon. The duty free and other facilities are fine but it was still cramped with little seating. You then have to walk outside in what I can only describe as bus shelters end on end to get to your plane and if your lucky you get a portacabin to stand in. After coming from Poland it makes England look like it's in the 1950s.

The worst airport ever!! I've been just dropping off my wife today and guess what - I had to pay 6 pounds fee for dropping off option, which should be free. It took me 2 minutes to enter the gates, let my wife go and get to the exit gate. It's a robbery. Moreover after speaking with my wife she said it's a very stresful flight, as they're massive ques everywhere and she was so scared that she would not be able to do everything on time. We arrived few minutes after 4 o'clock and the flight is 7:10pm, so u could imagine how time consuming and bad organised this airport is. Shame. Will defnietly avoid in the future.

Awful, there was an accident and people had to wait over 3 h to leave the airport (which is OK), what is not OK is rude staff. Shouting at passengers, rude, not helpful (well they were very important showing power when they could). Woman shouting to leave the airport and wait outside... Just wow during huragan. What got me there were so many children crying.. One autistic boy staff treaded him awful. In the future I will make sure to avoid this airport, staff there is revolting. I gave you one star only because I had to. Man shouting at woman and kids *wow*

Shock. Small grubby, especially the toilets. Nowhere to sit whe a couple of flight are due out. On arrival no toilets until you clear customs. All other airports I've used have these facilities. Took over 25 mins to clear passport control. If we had had small children with us needing toilets then this would have been horrendous. This airport is not fit for purpose as it is for large volumes of travelers. Needs flattening an starting again. No. Point them applying for any extension to flight until these issues have been addressed. 1 star is being generous.

It’s a nice little airport! Apparently it’s the highest altitude airport in Europe but don’t take my word for it. if anyone has been to Heathrow for context, the queues here are about 10 times faster. It’s also home to one of my favourite airlines, jet2. Decent transport there to, next to a motorway. Flights happen once an hour I’d say on average, but sometimes it’s more like once every half hour. It has some stores in, as well as cafes and a decent lounge. Would recommend this airport to anyone looking for a quieter option than Manchester.

Depends on who you’re flying with but if it’s klm especially the queue isn’t as long as others sometimes the machines say there’s something metal / electronic on you but there’s not example your left leg then being searched but they find nothing I don’t know if that’s to do with the machines or what. There’s a Burger King you can eat before your flight and a football clothes shop plus the normal duty free shop a couple restaurants and lots of different seating areas. Recommend going early in morning or late at night as quieter normally

The dirtiest airport in the world, not only it is filthy but the security staff also target only certain people/colours. Only certain people get stopped on a regular basis even when wearing trainers. Even when you have not triggered any walkthrough alarm, still another scanner is applicable to certain colours. The owner needs to review the dirty tricks of the private firm hired for security. Airline staff are polite and cooperative, however the airport itself not clean and the security staff at check in points are clearly dirty.

Leeds Bradford airport is an amazing airport and I recommend to all people around the area. I live over an hour away and still travel from that airport! People sometimes complain about a flight to Mallorca being from the furthest gate and having to walk but special assistance can be offered and it's not too far of a walk and you can see all the aircraft right next to you. There is an amazing range of shops, Starbucks and restaurants with plenty of seating, all the staff are really friendly and are happy to help when needed.

Too small for the amount of passengers. I travelled in May and luckily were in a lounge so was gaurenteed a seat. Went again in July and was no areas to sit. The bars were completely overflowing with intimidating drunk people. I love a drink but in a pub or club not a general departure lounge. Elderly and family's having nowhere to sit apart from the floor. They need to extend the terminal building or cut the number of flights. Only positive was took around 20 minutes from landing to getting on bus to car park.

“If only I could give this place no stars. What a dump. It’s been a few years since we flew from here but I doubt they have cleaned the toilets in that time, they are truly vile. In fact the whole experience was horrible, heaven knows how much cash this place generates, but you can be sure none of it is being reinvested, it’s dirty. Whoever is in charge needs to go and have a look at Newcastle or Teesside airports, that’s how to do it, genuinely whoever is in charge should be ashamed of themselves.

Airport staff are rude. Security personnel were unnecessarily rude making us unpack all of our items into almost identical clear bags to what we brought. Limited to 1 bag per person. Was quiet and seemed like they had nothing better to do. Several security staff just stood around chatting and watching. Airport is very dated and not very pleasant. Staff in shops are equally rude, not a single person wished us a good flight or a nice trip. Totally rude and unfriendly. Such a shame.

Far too small for an International Airport. Going out, no air conditioning and packed to the rafters uncomfortable. Poor communication on flights and gates. Coming back, left on the runway for 45 minutes for a bus to take us walking distance to the terminal and chaos in the bagage reclaim area, several flights on one reclaim finally split into the other spare. The Operations Management and Executives need to either leave I’d full their fingers out, an extremely poor experience.

First time to return to leeds Bradford airport since before covid pandemic. Last time we were here they were still improving and building. Our trip today was perfect! Cases gone in 15 mins again 15 mins threw security non fast pass. The airport looks fresh and lots of light makes for a good experience. Staff threw out were all smiles and helpful. Thanks leeds for a good airport experience. Tip google que times the fast pass was not needed. Please give a thumbs up.

Many good aspects of the airport to praise. The parking is good as is the public transport offer. Food providers are pricey but not as much as other airports. Ground staff and services are good and good at keeping information updated. The BIG let down is security. I had the displeasure of going through twice today. It is chaotic, systems should flow having people crossing each others pathd is just a recipe for disaster and disaster it is. Hope it improves soon

Disgusting signage regarding all parking options available. An attempt to ensure fines will be handed out to confused travellers for extra revenue? It's absolutely despicable. Poor narrow access roads makes parking more difficult too. On leaving, one way systems operate at points where they are not necessary or practical. BEWARE, stop on a red line and there's a fine coming your way! LBIA need to totally review their traffic and parking management syste!

Just at the airport at 6pm on a weekday. The bars are a disgrace. Tables covered in glasses and hardly a table free that isn’t already used and filthy. What an awful place to start a journey. Hardly any staff to do the clearing and those that are working seem to prefer standing chatting than actually getting on with making this a more pleasant place. And don’t get me started on the appalling prices for this privilege. And no internet connection either.

Staff are friendly enough, but the problems start past security when there is an astounding lack of seating areas if you don’t want to sit at a bar for 2hrs before your flight! Not many places to shop or grab a bite, mostly bars. Many drunken passengers, so much so that one chap was arrested straight off of our flight to Chania. Overall a very cramped, uncomfortable airport; I will endeavour to use Newcastle or Manchester for future flights!

Was told by LBA staff that our flight was full, so we couldn't have hand luggage. Had to unload half of our stuff into a bag provided them and check in our now half empty handbaggage. All in the name of saving space. Got on the half booked plane to see we were only one of a few that had to do this. Tons of room in overhead lockers. 4 hours in Amsterdam with no toiletries or power cables for laptop etc. Why did they lie to us?

Considering I was on one of five flights arriving around the same time, yesterday,Passing customs and passport posts service was quite good.Downside was a frustrating wait for baggage. Result?From landing at 15.25pm.Finally exited airport at 16.30pm.Not as last time I was at Leeds Bradford airport was 30 mins. The first thing that greets passengers is an escalator that's been out of use for at least 10 yes.Poor .very poor.

The worst airport I've ever been to. Delays all the time. Staff don't seem to know anything or move quickly. Ground staff seem surprised when planes land. Just waited 2 hours to get off plane and through security. Kids crying everywhere and no priority queue for families. Everywhere else I go they help get kids through. My wife picked me up and had to pay £54 in parking charges due to the delay. Not fit for purpose.

Honestly one of the worst airports in the developed world I have ever been to. So crowded with small maze-like corridors, chaotic, put the gate # 10 minutes before boarding, waited on tarmac for 20 minutes while the plane deboarded for no good reason, so many fines and fees for a confusing drop off. +1 star for fast and friendly security check +1 star for reasonably good shopping but not so great restaurant options

Only visited to pick up my son from a flight. Positive one hours free parking. Negative terrible to get to from any direction and it struggles in bad weather. Sons out going flight was moved to East Midlands as a plane had slipped off the short runway and return was delayed as fog earlier in the day had delayed the plane flying to Alicante to pick him up. Cannot believe modern spacious Doncaster Airport isn't open.

Comparing to other British airports, this one is actually quite good. It's the only one I know of that has a free 1 hour parking 5 minutes walk to the main station where all other airports charge at least £5 for such convenience. Decent facilities and flights network for the size of the airport. We used it three times, and each time there was little waiting for the security check or passport control.

Without doubt in the running for the worst UK airport, from the poor over priced food in restaurants to the lack of space and seating. Special mention to the downstairs bar which during a 1 hour delay and sat waiting they managed to not clean one table. At arrival it takes over 2 hours to disembark, clear the border and collect bags. Amazing how one airport can get every step of the way wrong.

It's all about the money it seems. Drop off charges shouldn't be allowed. The price of food and drink is obnoxious. 1.79 for a packet of crisps. Just because it's an airport shouldn't mean everything becomes expensive and we shouldn't have to accept it. The food and drink places are expensive too and the quality is very "meh" and not reflective of the cost. Sadly it's a captive audience.

Flew out from this airport on many occasions and rarely had an issue getting away. Getting back however, is a very different matter. You can expect upwards of 1.5 to 2 hours in a queue to get through passport control. If you have a non EU or UK passport you would be through relatively quickly but if you have a UK passport you can expect lengthy queues and contempt from the border force

Awful experience making our way up the escalator to Boarder Control at the top of the escalator and the staircase the landing area became crammed. This resulted in people falling into each other due to the escalator still running. I had to call down from the top for someone to press the stop button to avoid an accident happening. This needs resolving before a serious accident happens.

I quite like this small airport, good connections and in general good staff. Now, something that really surprised me was, when passing security, I was not expecting that if you are man you need to pass through one lane and if you are a woman through another lane. This, to me, was shocking! This places needs to increase the diversity knowledge and staff across all the difference areas

This is one of the worst airports I have visited it’s dirty, on other airports cleaners are constantly going round the outside corridors have weeds and rubbish. The airport lounge is also bad cold food and no one clears up. Once the new facilities are available I may return. The only thing is unless the management changes it will get to the same state. Not really worth the 1 star

I had a fantastic experience at Leeds/Bradford Airport. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The check-in process was smooth, and I was impressed with the variety of shops and dining options available. The airport's layout made it easy to navigate, and the signage was clear. Overall, a great place to start your journey!

Flying from this airport 4th time this year and my perfume bootle was 100ml since today was everything ok but unfortunately one young lady can’t recognise 100ml bootle and a bit less than half of bootle is used since Jan this year. So far was good but £120 perfume gone coz someone can’t recognise simple thing like 50ml of liquid in 100ml bootle

Travelled from Leeds Bradford today. What a shambles it is. Not enough staff. Queues were a mile long. People not getting to their planes on time. Weren't very helpful to people with disabilities like Manchester Airport are. My plane left 30 mins late having to wait for everyone to board. I don't think I will travel from Leeds again. Manchester Airport all the way

Possibly the worst airport in the UK! There is always something wrong causing delays or cancellations where taking off or arriving at the airport. They do not care about passengers at all. More than happy to keep you trapped on planes on the tarmac for hours on end while their inadequate processes are “put into action”. Set of running the show

Yes it’s an airport and they are all stressful but the staff here really are exceptional. Always pleasant, helpful and happy - every one I have encountered this morning has been spot on - makes the whole thing easier and bearable. From police officers to security to check in staff everyone was great! Straight up recommended and well done to a great team!

I didn't like this airport at all. There were no queues at security so that's great, but that's about it. The layout after security is very weird - first you pass through a series of shops to get to the restaurant area. There's not enough seating and limited number of power outlets. During boarding, people are kept in a stairway. Poor experience.

Actually, not a bad airport, sensible signage and reasonable staff who appear to have actually had training. Why are people discriminated against for having people pick up/drop them off though? Watched disabled people struggle almost a mile to get dropped off/collected at a free car park, that's disgusting and discriminating, hence lose two stars

Very tired..needs some updating.. Car Park tatty.. domestic arrivals area would benefit from been more organized And a arrival screen.. Drop off charge is a rip off less than 5 mins £12 .. Free Park for a hour is fine..but not tidy. I think passengers and the public expect more ..and should in this day and age get it.. Big improvement needed ..

Almost the perfect airport to fly in and out of. However, looking for the car park I needed, poor Signage sent me the wrong way and up a one way street into the drop off area, I had no choice but to enter. This cost me £6 to drive through. I was in there for a whole ten seconds. What an absolute con! Love the airport though and it’s facilities.

Absolute carnage. Two people on security. The queues were enormous. One staff member checking boarding passes for an entire flight. Left standing in what looks like a portacabin. It’s a disgrace. Airport management should be ashamed. Airline should be ashamed. Employ more staff and stop lining the wallets of the already wealthy executives.

Nice airport, wasn't very busy Sunday morning so was really nice. Plenty duty free shopping . Food and drink abit over priced. Toilets clean in departure lounge, but not very nice in arrivals. Baggage came through very quick. No issues with passport or security checks, very thorough. Would use this airport again no problems.

Very poorly organised we have had 2 recent flights to Leeds Bradford and both times sat on the run way for around 30 minutes first time waiting for buses to transport to the terminal second time was waiting 25 minutes for stairs to get off the plane. From touching down to border control was 1 hour and 10 minutes

The place is a complete shambles. Very expensive parking, lack of facilities, security queues are a joke. Came back in August with one luggage belt working, who was running around trying to sort it out? JET 2 staff, the only people interested in the place .If the rail links improve for Manchester it is history.

£6 for 5 min to pick up from airport is a complete rip off. The free area is too far away to drag luggage to especially when it's pissing it down. They couldn't put the free drop off area in a more inconvenient part of the complex without digging a moat round it and filling it with sharks. Greed simple as.

It’s fine and doesn’t take long to get through. Security is quite crowded and seemed very understaffed and there aren’t many shops or places within the airport. The lounge has definitely seen better days, and the £6-£12 drop off fee is a bit steep but what are you really wanting from a small local airport?

At 230pm on a winter Friday, I found this to be one of the more efficient and friendly UK airports I have been to. No line at security. I was curb to gate in 15 mins. There was ample seating at food and bev outlets and less of the untidiness one finds at some of Bradford’s larger neighbour airports.

Excellent local airport just on our doorstep, there is a one hour free car park so easy for dropping off and picking up, never had any issues with checking in very easy, staff very friendly and helpful, yes it might be a bit expensive once inside but what airport isn’t! Love travelling from LBA.

Conveniently local for folk in West Yorkshire. Parking in Mid Stay was a short walk as close to terminal. Queues at Security weren't bad, although we paid for Fast Track. Duty Free small at LBA. Boarding at Gate 6 has no seating and no queuing system even when you've paid for priority boarding.

Decent airport to be honest. No passport control for arrivals from Dublin. There was passport control in Dublin. It's just another sign of skint Britain. 5 minute walk to Carvery pub on Lancaster way if you want to avoid drop off/ arrival fees. Have a drink while waiting to be picked up …

The airport is great. But what isn't is the taxi service outside. I got a taxi to the airport using my usual taxi company on Saturday morning £21.00. Got a taxi home tonight using the only taxi company available outside. Arrow cars £39.38p. Total rip off. Someone is doing something wrong.

Easy to get to. Parking great. Holidays with jet2 always run smoothly. In some parts of the airport (baggage and toilets) it's looking tired and grubby but with the amount of people travelling it's no surprise. After saying this we will always choose to fly from here because it's so easy.

We love this airport, as the staff are really friendly, the security section is quick and runs smoothly. Not many shops, but enough cafes and bars to while away the wait. The downside is that the gates are always miles from the aeroplane. Take an umbrella ☔ But you get what you pay for.

i fly out on the 30 of aug and return on the 13 of sept 23. the airport was clean and bright. layout a little odd, but fine, i use the runway lounge. i would use the airport and the long term car park again. coming back it. getting the cases and going through customs was fast, and easy

LBA is a fairly medium sized airport. The airport itself was generally clean and tidy throughout. Security at 4am there were fair queues and they could have opened all the lanes up as opposed to having just one. Generally my experience here was good and I would fly from here again.

First time flying from here, usually Manchester. Check in with Jet 2 was quick, friendly amd efficient. Staff at security were friendly amd it took us a matter of minutes to get through. Facilities there are good considering the size, with a decent range of shops amd F&B outlets.

Never had a problem with this airport. It's easy to get through security, and the queues are small and swift. The toilets are clean and well stocked. Limited shops and restaurants, but that doesn't bother me. My only criticism is that the floors are a little dirty with litter.

Having travelled to 5 continents, LBA has distinguished itself as the worst airport I’ve ever been to. Essentially it operates at a capacity 5x higher than what it can deliver including waiting on the tarmac for 45 min for a bus to transport us from plane to the terminal.

This has to be the worst airport in England Thousands of people No were to sit air conditioning not working to unbelievable Time to find a better airport I would rather drive 2 hour than fly from Leeds and Bradford it’s a safety hazard about to happen

.4 start but only because of its location and 1 hour free parking. Like most UK airports, they could do with copying the like of Fuerteventura or Lanzarote interns of light, bright spaces, Clean high quality toilets and sensibly prices snacks.

Very poor requires more staff with better customer handling skills... The amount of walking required for disembarking from planes not acceptable all other services require updating. Used airport for many years nothing changed getting worse.

Stuck in 1970 still, facilities are all really outdated and in dire need of a refurbishment when you compare it with just about any comparable sized airport in Europe. Staff pleasant and waiting time for security were both decent though

Easy baggage drop, but massive queue for security. Lots of carpark walkways rough snd disconnected from each other, some under inches of water in the rain. Direction ok from high price carpark but disorganised from long-term.

Here now. Flight landed 1hr 20 minutes ago. Still no sign of any suitcases. Have been waiting an hour in baggage collection. Sort it out! Be quicker to drive back from Manchester then wait here this long.

Great small airport. Easily accessible without the need for stressful motorway journeys. Good choice of destinations and retail outlets for those who like to browse while they wait for their flight.

I am a regular traveller and have flown from most of the airports in the UK. Leeds Bradford Airport is outstanding for its friendly, welcoming atmosphere throughout. This quality makes it stand out.

+ Very fast check-in (Jet2 building) + Quick security lines + Great staff + Many duty free options, food court is small - Quite a small airport, can get easily packed during peak period

Great local airport. Good size without having to walk miles. For picking people up the One Hour Free car park is excellent. Also, it's easy to get to from all directions.

Small airport that is always busy. There is very little food options past security (burger king and boots). Would recommend but don't expect much.

It's a very good small airport, with it being small it takes some time to get through and sometimes you may need the priority pass it's that busy.
