In-Depth Information
London has six airports; I've focused my coverage on the two most widely
used—Heathrow and Gatwick—with a few tips for using the others (Stansted, Luton, Lon-
don City, and Southend).
Heathrow Airport is one of the world's busiest airports. Think about it: 70 million pas-
sengers a year on 470,000 flights from 190 destinations riding 85 airlines, like some kind
of global maypole dance. For Heathrow's airport, flight, and transfer information, call the
switchboard at 0844-335-1801, or visit the helpful website at

(airport code: LHR).
