Luton Airport to gain internet desks

Luton Airport to gain internet desks: "Passengers at London Luton Airport will soon be able to enjoy the benefits of advanced internet desks, after a deal was struck with Spectrum Interactive.
An internet retail shop, similar to those at BAA's Heathrow and Gatwick Airports, will allow customers to surf the internet, contact friends via MSN Messenger, compose documents on Microsoft Word and develop spreadsheets with the help of Microsoft Excel. With USB port functions, the internet retail shop will also allow passengers to save work that has to be submitted when they arrive at their destination.
Spectrum considers BAA to be one of its premier clients and the relationship between the two companies has brought about a number of key developments in the last few years.
Already Spectrum operates public internet services at 21 of the UK's airports, including Gatwick, Stanstead and Heathrow, with the latter gaining a bespoke design of ten internet desks and a helpdesk telephone area last week.
Daniel Gray, head of group marketing and product innovation for Spectrum Interactive, commented: 'We are extremely pleased to complete this agreement and to reinforce our position as market leader for public internet access at UK airports. In line with our product strategy, we are currently developing new features and services to offer through our desks, which will generate new revenues for Spectrum and its airport partners.'
The fourth-busiest airport in the London area, Luton welcomed more than nine million passengers in 2005."
