    A couple of weeks ago i flew at 6:30am - the newsagent/bookshop was open as were the coffee shop and also the restaurant so i would imagine that they will still be open then.

    No worries, they'll all be open long before 10 am.

    Think Michelle is going to be "hanging around" at 10pm.

    Should be open, but as you've found, the web site is a bit vague (to say the least)
    "Is there somewhere to eat when there are early or late flights?
    Yes, our food and drink outlets will be open during these times."

    I've only ever flown early from EM - things start opening around 6am which is better than some airports. Would guess that at least the bar will be open - give 'em a bag of crisps and a lemonade... (or take some sarnies).
