The investment, made in partnership with several leading retailers and hospitality operators, has seen the successful introduction of two new restaurants, upgrades to existing retail units both airside and landside, and significant enhancements to the main departure lounge.

These improvements ensure passengers now enjoy a wider choice of high-quality dining and shopping options.

  • Primo Volo: the new Italian café bar in the main departure lounge offers ciabatta sandwiches, pasta dishes, and Italian cocktails, providing a taste of Italy before take-off.
  • Bird and Signet Bar & Kitchen: enhanced with a refreshed look and improved menu.
  • Stack & Still: the popular pancake unit has been relocated for greater convenience.
  • Accessorize and Travelex: new stores have opened, expanding the retail offering for passengers.
