Luton Airport shelves drop-off charges
11.05.09
Luton Airport has shelved plans to charge drivers £1 to drop passengers off at the terminal following a public outcry, the Daily Telegraph reports. This ‘kiss and drop’ charge at its short stay car park was due to come into force last month but have been put on hold until further notice.
Luton would have been the first airport in the country to charge for dropping off passengers outside the terminal, although Birmingham forces everyone to use the nearby short-stay car park. An airport spokesman told the newspaper: ‘We haven't implemented it yet. There are some other things in the project we need to work on, There is no fixed date for it, we will advise passengers in due course. Nothing has been set in stone.’
When the Telegraph asked if the scheme had been dropped completely, the airport spokesman said: ‘I don't have any information on that at the moment.’
