Heathrow-3
New airline and new airport.
Aeroitalia to fly 5x weekly to Bergamo in northern Italy from early Dec 2022. Yes, I was surprised at the short period between announcement and first flight

Bergamo is slightly overlooked but well worth a visit. Very picturesque old city, great restaurants and quite a bit going on. It’s also fairly progressive, veganism etc is quite big by Italian standards.

To be fair Bergamo Airport (Milan Orio Al Serio) is actually only 28 miles outside of the centre of Milan.
That’s less mileage than Gatwick is from London.

I've just and for some reason the links don't work even though I've only just read them.
You can still search routesonline using the Bergamo Airport code but nonetheless a railway link between Central Milan Railway Station and Milan Bergamo Airport was approved recently with construction already in progress.

I'm looking forward to the day when Terminal 1 is finally demolished and construction of the Terminal 2 extension along with Terminal 2C finally gets underway.

There are some more peripheral bits of T1 that will be due for demo next year.

I look forward to reading further updates regarding T1 in the near future and in particular news of anything due for demolition.

Heathrow Airport has stated it will not re-introduce a cap on passenger numbers around Christmas. The UK's biggest airport said it was preparing for the biggest festive travel season in three years. Heathrow also predicted staffing would be back to pre-pandemic levels before the summer holidays.
