If this was DXB they would have planned built and operated a new airport in the South East away from Central London in the time it's taken to put this report together. The Chinese would have built a mono type railway to serve it as they have done in Shanghai. How many millions have been spent on this report and the time wasted putting it together? And still the sceptics will fight the recommendation.
So 2029 is the start up date and no doubt cost billions more than estimated. All this has played into AMS CDG FRA hubs and LHR will soon slide down the league table of busiest airports.
LGW should get its second runway regardless of what LHR is doing.
