There are 6 airports in London, but there are undoubtedly two palm trees - Heathrow and Gatwick. These are the largest and most requested air hubs in the UK capital.

Heathrow Airport is London's largest international air harbor. In addition, it is one of the busiest airports in the world and the first busiest in Europe. Heathrow is located 24 km west of central London. Every day about 1,300 flights are made here, which are performed by more than 90 airlines. You can see the flight schedule on the official website of the airport

The airport terminal complex consists of five terminals. It is interesting that because of the specific location of the runways, all planes come to land directly above the city.

Special attention is paid to believers at the airport - there are representatives of many religions and denominations that at certain hours conduct prayer rites.

If you arrive or depart from Heathrow, it is better to learn in advance the scheme of the airport and all the subtleties of moving in it. The fact is that many tourists complain that it is not easy to understand Heathrow. The airport is huge, and information for foreigners is sometimes not enough.

Gatwick is the second largest airport in London and the whole of England. It is located 45 km from the capital of the country. Gatwick Airport mainly serves charter flights. You can see the schedule of flights on the official website of the aero node.

The airport complex consists of two terminals - the North and the South. The journey between them by the easy metro is free.

Both London airports make a pleasant impression in terms of the variety of services. There are a lot of bars and restaurants here, both for the most demanding tourists, and for lowly passengers. There are beauty salons, and game rooms, and impressive stores. Near the airports there are hotels of different levels.
