What is the difference between Heathrow and Gatwick airports?
Heathrow (LHR) is London's primary airport for long-haul and full-service carriers, located west of central London. Gatwick (LGW) is south of London and focuses more on short-haul, low-cost, and leisure routes. Gatwick operates with a single runway (the world's busiest) while Heathrow has two. Both are well-connected to central London by direct rail services.
Are there hotels inside London Gatwick Airport?
Yes, Gatwick has on-airport hotels in both terminals. The YOTELAIR is located inside the South Terminal airside, meaning you can stay without going through immigration.
