My first summer flight since before COVID and unfortunately I chose to fly from Leeds Bradford. It would not be an exaggeration to say this airport is comfortably the worst I have ever experienced in my nearly 50 years of flying including so called ‘third world countries’. It is squalid (spills, stains, rubbish), overcrowded to the point of being dangerous, hot and stuffy. There is no seating because it has all been given over to sell more stuff to the hoardes of unwitting tourists. I feel desperately sorry for the staff who work here in whatever capacity. Whoever is running this place (no doubt on a huge salary) should be brought to task immediately. It is a disgrace.
