Brits flock to summer sun in July weather washout
-- While overall passenger numbers remain below pre-pandemic
levels, 7.6 million people travelled through Heathrow in July,
averaging nearly a quarter of a million passengers a day
-- With poor weather in Britain over July, Brits raced to get
some summer sun. Over 73,000 passengers flew to Turkey in July, the
busiest month ever for the destination. Departures to Gibraltar,
Portugal and Italy have also all been close to record levels,
proving popular destinations for sun seekers
-- The Big Apple tops the charts as the most popular
destination, with passengers taking advantage of the 31 daily
flights from Heathrow to New York. The Airports Council
International recently named Heathrow the "best connected European
airport" to North America
-- It has been a strong start to the summer season for passenger
service. With security queues consistently under five minutes,
passengers can travel stress-free and enjoy more than 300 retail
and food and beverage options at Heathrow
-- Heathrow remains one of very few international airports
serving more than 100 long haul routes, opening up a world of
opportunity for people, cargo and business to fly across the globe
in a single stop
-- Heathrow continues to work closely with our airline partners
to add more routes and frequencies to our network. This October
will see British Airways services to Riga and Belgrade commence,
whilst Virgin will connect to Dubai after a four-year hiatus.
Lufthansa will start serving Salzburg and Friedrichshafen in time
for Christmas festivities
Heathrow CEO John Holland-Kaye said :
"It's great to see so many passengers getting away to grab some
summer sun. We've got a great range of popular destinations and our
teams are delivering excellent service which will ensure your
travels get off to the best start."
