===Terminal Cafe===

The cafe on the first floor of the terminal building overlooks the main apron, and photography is possible from here. The cafe is officially designated a Viewing Area on signage in the terminal, however it is always best to purchase something from the cafe if you are using the tables.

==Other Spotting Locations==

===B&Q Car Park===

Walk or drive away from the terminal, North East towards Holywood. Follow the signs to the Holywood exchange, and you will pass a Sainsbury's before coming to a B&Q store. There are grass areas in front of the B&Q and alongside the road where viewing and photography is possible of aircraft approaching runway 22.

===Old Terminal Car Park and Railway Bridge===

The old Terminal carpark is no longer used, however still has a manned security hut overlooking the area. It is possible to photograph any aircraft using the old Terminal for General Aviation purposes, however an extended stay to photograph the movements will result in you being moved to the footbridge linking the airport with the nearby railway station. The footbrdige enables good views and photography of aircraft departing runway 22, and arriving and departing runway 04. Parking in the old Terminal car park is not permitted for any length of time, however parking is available off the main dual carriageway under the footbridge.

==Official Spotting Locations==
None

==Other Spotting Locations==

===Landside===
None from the terminal building since the viewing gallery was incorporated into the upper airside departure lounge.

Although I have no experience, the road to the long stay car park (north of the GA area and the Aviation Fuel area) is close the north end of the runway.

===Airside===
In the upstairs departure lounge views of the runway (02/20) and stands 5 to 10 are visible.

==Locations to Avoid==
Although the Multi-storey Short Stay Car Park overlooks the stands 8 to 10 and is opposite Taxiway B to the runway, viewing is strictly prohibited.

Now the terminal view area is no longer there - the car park is the only place to go. SOU is my local airport and have had no problems from the car park.

==Regular Traffic==

==Facilities and Transportation==
Railway station within 50 yards of the terminal building. Services provided by South West Trains and Virgin Cross Country Trains.
