A very sad day for our police family

Please remember to pay for your parking
@STN_Airport

Following a hard day
@STN_Airport

Good Morning, there is no requirement to check passports while you are on board an aircraft. When you enter the UK from a country outside of the Common Travel Area then you will be required to present identification card or passport at the Immigration Border.
