I throughly understand the Gatwick treatment. My first trip there was about six weeks ago. I am currently at the internet cafe in Gatwick on my third trip for the EUR00 bonus. Gotta love this stuff. I now stay over at the Hilton then fly back the next day. Its alot easier for me.

The first run though I was here for 4 hours and when I tried to use flight conections the security guy looked at me like I was crazy and wouldn't let me through because I was on an e-ticket and said that I needed to go through customs and checkin at the gate. So on to customs I went. This was my first international flight by the way. At customs the officer was a nice young lady and she ask "how long will you be in the UK?" I replied, "about 4 or 5 hours". She said "that's an awlfy long way to come for 5 hours" I said "crazy isn't it".

Next came the security area in front of checkin. My guy was young and keep asking questions about my luggage and what's in it. How old it was and how long I had been here. Finally let me checkin. Back to departures to find the Admirals Club which took me a half hour to find. Sat there tired and thinking maybe I am crazy!

Everything worked out. Now I just spend one night here. Nobody ask much of anything and I get a good nights sleep before I go back. Real funny when I look back at it. Worth it though.
