Internet terminals

Internet desks with broadband-connected PCs are available in a number of locations in the terminal, before and after security.

Facilities are available in both terminals, operated by Spectrum Interactive Ltd. You'll also find plenty of phone-style internet kiosks where you can check your email or surf the web.

Payment can be made online by credit card, by voucher, or by coin (UK pound or euro).

Wireless internet access

Enjoy the freedom of high-speed wireless internet access via your laptop computer or handheld device.

Wireless hotspots in the terminals mean you can connect instantly and work or surf on the move. There is a choice of service providers.

Worried about your battery? Look out for the T-Mobile laptop stations and BT Openzone chairs with power sockets.

Your equipment

You'll need a wireless compatible (Wi-fi 802.11b) device. Most modern laptops have this function built in and many others can be upgraded with a wireless networking card (you can even buy these at the airport).

How to connect
  • Turn on your wireless enabled device.
  • Launch your browser and navigate to any web page.
  • When the connection is detected you'll see a list of service providers – choose one.
  • If you have an account with the service provider, log in. Otherwise you can set up an account there and then. Payment can be made online.
