This summer, our office teams have been stepping into the heart of airport operations as part of our #SuperSummer initiative. 😎

This initiative gives our office staff the opportunity to lend a helping hand during the busiest time of year and gain first-hand insight into how the airport runs day to day.

From guiding passengers to answering questions, assisting with security queries and offering support, it’s been a brilliant opportunity to connect with colleagues and learn from our operational teams ✈️

Swipe through to see some of our volunteers in action and hear what they had to say about their shift. ➡️

High-value international visitors travelling through London Gatwick could help drive £275m into Sussex’s tourism economy each year. 🙌

If approved, our Northern Runway plans would unlock this growth potential, and by 2038 could also deliver an additional 1.6m inbound passengers annually, supporting the region’s ambitions to attract higher-spending, longer-staying tourists.

These plans support the Sussex Visitor Economy Growth Strategy, which aims to grow the sector from £5bn to £7.5bn by 2034. 📈
