Heathrow Airport

Heathrow Airport is London’s largest airport and also one of the largest airports in the world. About two hundred thousand passengers pass through it every day. Coming from Brazil, this is probably where you will land. Located only 20 km from London, it has two main runways and five different terminals.
To give you an idea of its importance to the British nation, its terminal five, exclusive to British Airways, was personally opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 2008. It has an underground station and a railway station, making it easy for airport users to get around. Virtually every company in the world uses the airport.

Gatwick Airport

This is the second largest airport in London. It is about forty-five kilometres from the city centre and has a very high traffic volume, especially considering that it is a single runway airport.
Although it has lost importance in recent years with the expansion of Heathrow Airport and the rise of the others, it remains a key gateway to the English capital. It has a train service, making it easy to get into the city.
