Our local airport, we fly to Corfu with Ryanair East Midlands Airport is celebrating its 60th anniversary – and there are some big changes underway that passengers will benefit from in 2025 ✈️
2024 saw a wide range of improvements carried out, including a brand-new bar, and a completely refurbished Castle Rock Bar and Kitchen complemented by modernised toilets and baby changing facilities nearby, a new and larger JD Sports outlet, new departure lounge seating, new baggage trolleys, new revolving doors in the check-in hall and anti-backtrack doors in arrivals, a new airside multi faith room and upgrades to Air Traffic Control and airfield equipment.
This was the first phase of a £120m five-year investment programme which has continued recently with upgrades to the runway, taxiway and aprons, including resurfacing and replacing lights with energy efficient LED lights. And much more is underway or planned, ready for our busy summer season!
