great news for travellers.
New data collected by ACI Europe, the Airports Council
International, has revealed a 30 per cent increase in the number of
passengers travelling from Heathrow and Gatwick in April. According
to Travelsoon.com, many Brits took advantage of April’s bank
holidays to travel to a variety of sunny destinations. Warm weather
jaunts were in particularly high demand as
to the likes of Puerto Pollensa in Majorca, the Greek island of
Crete and the Canary Islands proved to be very popular with British
travellers.
The data showed that both London airports had increased
passenger traffic year-on-year, even in the face of the
Eyjafjallajökull volcano eruption last year which disrupted air
travel significantly. Comparing this year’s data with figures from
2009, passenger traffic had increased by nearly 10 per cent.

“Comparing this year’s figure to those of 2009, we are seeing a
steady increase in the number of people travelling abroad - this is
proof that the travel industry is growing steadily. This is great
news for British holidaymakers.”

of its annual revenue being generated during the month. With the
added benefit of an extra bank holiday in April many more
