Passenger numbers down at main London airports
Passenger numbers at London's main airports have dropped off due to increasing numbers of passengers choosing to fly from alternative terminals such as London City Airport and Farnborough.
Even Stansted which has seen double-digit growth for years has reported a drop of 3.5% in passenger numbers, meanwhile growth at London Luton has increased 10% in a year.
There are several theories for this drop in passenger numbers; increased Air Passenger Duty, interest rates, heightened security measures and good April weather could all be to blame.
