But I would bet that most people who have a booked ticket from a
particular airport as part of a package, don't go anywhere near the
airport web site.


If the airport has more than one terminal, I would always look up where
the flight was departing from. For some reason directly-booked
itineraries rarely tell you, maybe because they think terminal
allocation may change between booking and travel.

The most confusing is when you are flying on a codeshare and the carrier
and the ticket seller operate from different terminals.

So where IS the one at Luton that I am bound to have walked past, then?


There are several. The one you couldn't have avoided is, if I recall
rightly, right by the entrance to departures.

In the old layout there were 3 (I think) at the top of the stairs
opposite the security entrance.

Remember, Luton is currently undergoing redevelopment so parts of it
are walled off, and there are some routes from A-B that will simply be
down a corridor with wooden walls on either side with no street
furniture in the way.


I know.

You're right, airports shouldn't have websites. Don't know why they
bother.


I said nothing of the sort

they are obviously useful for the few (percent) that do visit them


Some are. Some aren't. I tend to use them as a starting point for ground
transport information, but (at least in the past) some just said either
"get a taxi from the terminal" or "don't get a taxi from the terminal
because you will be totally and utterly ripped off, instead pre-book a
taxi".
