  • A New Airport for London and the UK Technical Note - Shortlisting the Options
    A new airport for London and the UK Technical note - shortlisting the options 15 July 2013 Published by the Mayor of London in advance of his submissions to the Airports Commission on long-term proposals 0 A New Airport for London and the UK Technical note: Shortlisting the options July 2013 1. Introduction 1.1. The UK needs a new hub airport at a single site. The case for this has been presented by the Mayor in his two ‘A new airport for London’ reports1, as well as his responses to the Airports Commission Discussion Papers, all of which are available online at www.newairportforlondon.com. 1.2. This paper is the pre-cursor to the Mayor’s submission of long-term proposals to the Airports Commission. This paper sets out: why airport capacity that facilitates hub operations is essential and why dispersed expansion is not a credible substitute for a single effective hub airport, a high level assessment of a longlist of potential options for new hub airport capacity, application of different weightings to determine a shortlist of options that best meet the Mayor’s objectives for London and the UK. 1.3. The Mayor will be submitting three proposals to the Airports Commission on July 19 for the additional hub airport capacity that London and the UK need. 2. Executive Summary 2.1. A hub airport builds a critical mass of demand of ‘local’ origin/destination (O/D) and transfer traffic – supporting a wider range of routes and higher frequencies than would otherwise be possible. This enables hub capacity to offer a level of connectivity that supports future growth and prosperity for London and the UK.

    GATCOM REPORT FROM GATWICK AIRPORT CHIEF EXECUTIVE STEWART WINGATE PERFORMANCE, ACTIVITIES AND PEOPLE 1st January – 31st March 2018 n 1 1. OVERVIEW 1.1 During the period, Gatwick achieved a 1.6% year-on-year increase in traffic, resulting in 9,301,425 passengers travelling through the airport. 1.2 Record growth has been matched with strong results in quality of service for passengers as evidenced by Gatwick passing 100% of the 8 core service standards that are based upon our Quality of Service Monitor (QSM) for the 34th consecutive month. The overall passenger satisfaction scores remained at record levels for all 3 months of this winter season. Furthermore Gatwick’s Net Promoter Score, our measure of advocacy, has also just hit the highest-ever levels for each of the winter months (Jan-Mar) finishing on 42.2 in March (significantly ahead of 37.9 last year). 1.3 In the first quarter of 2018 (Jan-Mar) our passengers’ satisfaction with the selection of the Retail outlet brands we offer them in our Departure Lounges has reached a record-ever level of 88.5% and the equivalent for Food & Beverage brands is the second-highest at 87.7%. This means almost 9 in every 10 passengers rate our selection of brands as either ‘Good’ or ‘Excellent’ – a far cry from just over 6 in 10 under BAA ownership. 1.4 Our long haul network continues to expand with the latest announcement being Qatar Airways new double daily service to Doha, Qatar which commences at the end of May 2018. Other route news includes British Airways frequency increases to a number of destinations in Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands as a result of their purchase of the ex-Monarch Airlines slots, and easyJet will commence new twice weekly summer only services to Ancona, Italy and Volos, Greece.

  • Case Study: Analysis of the Impact on Travel Times to Heathrow and Gatwick As a Result of Crossrail
    Case Study: Analysis of the impact on travel times to Heathrow and Gatwick as a result of Crossrail Airports and airlines within Britain are struggling to operate efficiently and effectively given the constraints of their existing infrastructure. Heathrow Airport is full having reached its maximum capacity in 2010 and in 2013 Gatwick Airport frequently operated at more than 85% of its maximum capacity and was also full during peak-times. In November 2014 the Airports Commission published for consultation its assessment of proposals for additional runway capacity at Heathrow and Gatwick airports. These proposals include: an extension of the existing northern runway to the west at Heathrow Airport (proposed by Heathrow Hub Ltd) a new full length runway to the north west of the current northern runway at Heathrow Airport a new runway south of, and parallel to, the current runway at Gatwick Airport These additional runways aim to increase capacity at each airport, improving airline operations within them. Another item high on the airport agenda is the improvement of airport accessibility. This can be targeted through the improvement of public transport links which should reduce current travel times to airports. Efficient public transport should also discourage travelling to airports by car, which is beneficial as high carbon emissions are associated with car use. The carbon emissions released by cars and taxis is over 10 times larger than those released by public transport. In 2012 the Department for Transport published statistics comparing the yearly carbon dioxide emissions from different modes of transport: cars and taxis released 63.7 Mtn of CO2 in 2012, whereas buses, coaches and trains combined released only 6 Mtn.
