Nicer lounges (except CCR) and the euroflyer CE experience seems to have stabilised somewhat.
The Gatwick flight times to ALC are absolutely abysmal unless you fly Vuelling which as a Silver would not get my lounge access and also they don't have a business class cabin. As its a short trip I want to be in ALC as early as possible so the day has not gone by the time I get to Benidorm.
