October 2024

London City Airport received permission to increase its annual passenger capacity from 6.5 million to 9 million, allowing more early-morning flights to land in the East London airport. Serving just a fraction of the number of passengers that passes through Heathrow (LHR), London City Airport’s expansion will allow more North American travelers to reach Europe with ease.

Current U.S. cities with non-stop flights to London City Airport include Miami (MIA), Chicago (ORD) and New York (JFK).

The airport offers flights to more than 20 destinations across Europe and the United Kingdom, with major airlines like Lufthansa, KLM and British Airways operating out of the 15-gate airport.
