lehovec - I know what you mean! I was stuck at the International Arrivals end for nearly 3 and a half hours. Eventually gave up at 4pm and went into London to get a train home. The benefits of EJ+ for me are huge as I'm going to be travelling every other week for quite a bit of the year, hence my expectations of saving £500 - £600 over the course of the year.

Lets not forget that weather like that is unprecedented for that area of England and that it is unlikely I will see anything that bad again in all my travels next year!
