The change sees passengers no longer being allowed to be dropped off outside the busy airport's doors for free, but instead having to pay a controversial fee or be dropped off over a mile from the terminal doors.

The move has been made in a bid to halt the severe congestion experienced outside the airport.

When the changes become active, motorists will be forced to pay a whopping £3 for five minutes stopping time outside the terminal or train station, and an eye-watering £4 for just 10 minutes.

Passengers who still wish to be dropped off for free can do so further from the terminals.

The new drop off point is a 1.2 mile journey from terminals one and three - meaning a journey time of around 12 minutes on the shuttle bus service - and half a mile and seven minutes from terminal two.
