No complaints regarding the airport the staff are helpful unlike the baggage company at Edinburgh
Birmingham Intl is easy to get to its well signposted and there are plenty of staff about if you need any help
bought something at Edinburgh ( clothing) airport and didn't get duty free price??
Loos were not as clean as Edinburgh airport
Circuitous route to departures through shops was irksome and I find that overwhelming smell of perfumes etc physically nauseating
V dirty toilet
It’s not the best airport ever but not the worst to be honest it does look old though
Restaurants and bars were ridiculously expensive! Consequently I waited until I was at my destination for refreshments.
