Gatwick - How Low Can You Go?

Gatwick's Big Enough

GATWICK EXPANSION – A REAL THREAT. PLEASE ACT NOW

You need to register with the Planning Inspectorate before 23:59 on 29th October 2023 to have your say before - or, crucially after that date.

Over 1,200 Air Traffic Movements (aka flights) at peak, per day. An aircraft over us less than every two minutes – coming your way unless we act now.

Expansion will mean:


  • 35% more flights than 2019
  • 48% more emissions than 2019
  • 5.5% of all UK emissions will come from Gatwick in 2038
  • Being the size of Heathrow (where are they going to put 80m people?)
