O/T - East Midlands Airport.

Anyone who has not been up there recently will not have seen the plethora of double red lines which have replaced the yellows.
They're on every road.
There is now a white van with ANPR cameras in it which patrols - the driver doesn't have to stop, or talk, or warn you, your number plate will be recorded. £100 fine.
AFAIK there are no static cameras.
Yet.

Yep, and £4.50 for 30 mins pick up, £2 for 10 min drop off and £1 per minute thereafter!

If you get stuck at the Rapid Drop Off exit gate behind some plank who doesn't know what they're doing it might cost you more. I regularly see queues there.

It’s £2 for only a 5 minute drop off and £1 for every minute after!,

Shocking to charge at all IMHO.

EMA is yet another example of bad management, and as Notts supporters, we know all about that.
The airport is neither welcoming for departing passengers or those arriving. Sadly, it cannot really be an acceptable alternative
when flying, given the proximity of either Birmingham or Manchester.

It gets better! Truly dreadful.

Simple answer is, don't use it.

Customers rights

It must have gone up this last few weeks then because it was £2 for 10 minutes in May, robbing gits.

I haven’t used EMA for a few years now... it’s a horrible airport with despotic regulations and charges.

I’d sooner drive to Manchester, Birmingham or Stanstead.... or even better Robin Hood (the best)
