Luton airport, from my experience as a passenger there over >20 years, is I’ll-equipped to deal with its current passenger volume with just one runway. It has been a near perpetual building site for the past 8 years whilst showing no real improvement in the passenger experience. I have missed a flight due to queues through outbound security and queued for nearly two hours to make my way from the aircraft gate to passport control. Adding an extra runway will increase these problems. It would also have a negative impact on air quality for both Luton itself but also the surrounding area.
