VIP Heathrow Airport News Update: Heathrow Expansion Looking The Likely Choice

This week, The Airports Commission has backed a third Heathrow runway, saying it will add £147bn in economic growth and 70,000 jobs by 2050.

In a nutshell: the Heathrow scheme is predicted to create the most jobs and make the most money for the country.
The government has said that it will give its official response to the Commission in the autumn and it is estimated that, if given the go-ahead, any new runway would take more than a decade to build.
Heathrow welcomed the Commission’s decision saying it would now work with government to “deliver expansion for all of Britain”.

However, there’s a long way to go yet. This latest development is just a recommendation. It’s thought ministers will then need to run their own consultation, just a short one, maybe a few weeks, to hedge against legal challenges. heathrow parking with VIP
The plan involves building a new 3,500m runway about two miles north of the two runways Heathrow already has at an estimated cost of £18.6bn.
Heathrow is one of the world’s busiest, handling 70 million passengers in 2012. More than a third transfer to other flights, making it a major hub airport. But it operates at 98% of its capacity – much closer to capacity than other major London airports and rival hubs in Europe.
