    My flight STN-SNN on Saturday March 19 is at 7:15pm. I'll be checking in baggage. What time should I get to the airport? Is 6:00pm ok or should I be there earlier?

    I would give myself at least the 2 hours. Is the gate closing at 7.15 or flight departing at 7.15?

    Early! Security is a nightmare there especially as flights to Israel tend to leave near the Ireland flights which cause huge security delays

    I'd want to give myself two hours minimum alright at STN. I don't usually check in luggage but I have observed big Qs at certain times at the Ryanair desks. Also security there is not as efficient as at other airports and it is also a long enough walk to the Ryanair gates..

    Flight departs at 7:15.

    I'll aim to get there by 5:00. Thanks all!

    Definitely at least 2 hours, security at Stansted is highly unpredictable and can take an age. I'd give myself 2 hours even if I wasn't checking luggage. Also allow for traffic if travelling by road. I've lost count of the number of mates of mine that have missed flights from Stansted because of traffic or accidents on the M11

    I'll be taking the Stansted Express from Liverpool St
