Tentang London Heathrow Airport

Bandara Heathrow London adalah bandara tersibuk di Inggris dan tersibuk di Eropa berdasarkan lalu lintas penumpang internasional. Terletak 14 mil di barat Central London di London Borough of Hillingdon, Heathrow dibuka pada 1946 sebagai bandara sipil di lokasi bekas pangkalan Royal Air Force. Bandara ini menangani sekitar 80 juta penumpang per tahun di empat terminal operasional. Terminal 5, yang terbaru dan terbesar, dikhususkan untuk British Airways dan Iberia. Terminal 2, yang dikenal sebagai Queen's Terminal, melayani maskapai Star Alliance dan maskapai tertentu lainnya. Heathrow adalah hub utama British Airways dan Virgin Atlantic, dan menjadi tuan rumah hampir setiap maskapai internasional besar. Bandara ini terhubung dengan baik ke Central London melalui Heathrow Express (15 menit ke Paddington), Elizabeth Line (Crossrail), Piccadilly Line dari London Underground, dan berbagai layanan bus dan coach. Heathrow beroperasi dengan hanya dua landasan pacu, yang menciptakan kendala kapasitas signifikan dan telah memicu perdebatan selama puluhan tahun tentang rencana perluasan landasan pacu ketiga. Meskipun ada kendala ini, Heathrow mempertahankan salah satu jaringan rute jarak jauh paling luas dari bandara mana pun di seluruh dunia, dengan kekuatan khusus pada rute ke Amerika Utara, Timur Tengah, dan Asia Selatan.
