Summer getaway sends Heathrow soaring to best month in
history
-- Heathrow recorded its best-ever single month in its history
in July as the summer getaway sent passenger numbers soaring to
record highs
-- Breaking all previous monthly records, Heathrow welcomed 7.53
million passengers in July (+1.2% on last July) - averaging 243,000
passengers or the equivalent of the population of Plymouth every
day
-- Trade through Heathrow climbed at the fastest rate ever
recorded at the UK's largest port - up 15% to 143,000 tonnes in
July
-- American Airlines boosted cargo volumes by a huge 44% driving
growth in trade with North America (+16%) while East Asia saw a 14%
uplift on the back of strong growth to China, Hong Kong and
Singapore
-- Middle Eastern destinations were particularly popular for
travellers as fuller aircraft led to a seven per cent increase in
passengers to the region, while more flights to Brazil pushed up
passenger numbers to Latin America by three per cent
-- UK destinations saw five percent passenger growth on the back
of recently launched Flybe flights to Scotland
-- This summer saw Heathrow introduce new travelling friend
'Little Miss Explorer' to its tiniest travellers. Alongside Mr
Adventure, the travelling duo launched a new augmented reality app
to entertain children travelling with an interactive treasure hunt
across the airport
-- Heathrow continues to work closely with airlines and has made
good progress towards meeting the Government's challenge to deliver
expansion with charges close to current levels, while delivering
all local commitments and the global connections Britain needs
Heathrow CEO John Holland-Kaye said:
"Britain's global gateway is hard at work this summer holiday
season - July was the best month in Heathrow's history. With more
passengers than ever and trade growing at the fastest rate ever
recorded, Heathrow is helping Britain show the world our country is
open for business."
