Camp Stansted

Wednesday, September 1, 2010

I left for RSPSoc 2010 yesterday. Flights from Stansted, Heathrow and Gatwick all go in to Cork, but I reckoned that Stansted was easiest and caught the airport bus up late last night. Its a 6.20am flight so decided in the end that the best bet was to stay at the terminal. A quick butchers at Sleeping in Airports suggested Stansted was extremely budget traveller friendly. And so it was. There are a limited number of seats to lie across and, in any case, in order to get a good nights sleep, you need to take a sleeping bag and Therm-a-rest. It was surprisingly quiet, although the usual odd tannoy announcement, rumble of trolleys and espresso machines. Well recommended for an early start at Stansted!
