If you were hoping to save on a hotel and spend the night in the comfort and luxury of London Stansted Airport’s floor, you might have to rethink your plans. The airport is cracking down on its overnight guests, periodically closing its departures area to travelers between midnight and 2 AM.
Airport officials told the Telegraph that the reason for the closure is due to “construction work as part of our £600 million airport transformation programme, and to allow cleaning and other preparations for the next day’s flight operations.” Due to these projects, passengers, unfortunately, “can no longer sleep on the floor overnight, so [they] should not arrive sooner than their scheduled check-in time.”
