Stansted Airport Review. SKYTRAX STN Reviews. I have long been of the opinion that Stansted has no concept of customer care. The whole place seems vaguely grubby, staff are frequently rude and security is a nightmare. However, dropping off or picking up passengers was always fairly simple. To drop off, you drove up to the terminal, your passengers got out (under cover), you drove out. To pick up, you drove to the pick-up zone, your passengers got in, you drove out. Not any more. The whole thing has become shambolic. This morning I drove my husband to Stansted, with the objective of dropping him off at 5 am for a 6.30 am flight where he had already checked in online, but we were allowing at least an hour for him to get through security (see earlier comment about security).
