PASSENGERS flying from Stansted Airport have been enjoying some festive treats after Santa and his helpers dropped in to help them get into the Christmas spirit.

The man in red has been dishing out sweets and magical glitter dust for children to sprinkle outside on Christmas Eve to help guide him and his reindeers to their homes.

Retailers at the Uttlesford hub have also joined in the fun this week by offering beauty makeovers and the chance to taste some Christmas tipples. A gift wrapping service is also available in exchange for a donation to Macmillan Cancer Support.
