Sad news for LGW. Unfortunately, this more-or-less confirms that the South Terminal will now remain closed for the remainder of 2021 I really do hope BA and LGW will be able to bounce back from this awful pandemic once international travel resumes on large scale, whether that be later in the summer or early in the autumn. It is desperately sad watching just how badly Gatwick has been hit with the near total loss of its USA network, and long serving airlines such as Virgin Atlantic. Given that there is still so much uncertainty and lack of clarity regarding the resumption of leisure international travel, my guess is that we probably won't see significant improvements regarding LGW for the rest of 2021, but hopefully in 2022. Hopefully by then LGW can begin to rebuild itself and start bringing back some of its lost services, including long haul operators that were doing well at LGW prior to suspending operations.
