This airport con tinues to improve, and it is quite good value for money, the duty free section is a little too pricey when compared to other duty free outlets especially for cigarettes and alchol. All in all its a good airport, the car parking facilities cater for more pockets, the niggest down side is you have to pay a very big fee just to drop someone off of to collect someone, even if you are there for just five minutes, this I consider a bit of a rip off - bearing in mind the KISS and FLY concept at most other international airports - no charge for under ten minutes - this is wrong charging people for dropping off friends and families all of whom will spend money at the airport - not good at all NEWCASTLE AQIRPORT
