Friends returning from Faro last week had a 40 minute delay after landing
due no parking Stand availability.
After landing they held on the parallel for a bit then had to re-enter the
runway to let another a/c past then return to the taxyway to hold, the
sooner these 6 new Stands come on line the better methinks!

It is unfortunately only going to be 2 new stands next to the tower,
as far as I know. And they will be finished after the summer rush, so
no help there.
That your friends had to go back onto the runway, was due to the pilot
following his company a/c into a cul de sac with no free
stands.....so it took some "engineering" to get him out of the misere
again :-)
