Heathrow flights:
Heathrow offers the most diverse range of long-haul destinations of any airport in the world, with just about every corner of the globe covered. In recent years, the relaxation of restrictions on flights between the UK and India has seen new routes to cities such as Ahmedabad and Bangalore, whereas the ever expanding Chinese economy has seen more competition develop on flights from Heathrow to Shanghai and Beijing. The low-cost airlines might have taken away some of the appetite for short-haul flights from Heathrow, but there are still numerous airlines that would love to get in on the act, if only the space was available for them. This is where Gatwick steps in to fill the void, at least until Heathrow’s stunning fifth terminal opens in 2008. |
