London City Airport (LCY)
London City Airport is one of the newest airports in the UK today, having only opened in 1987. At the moment, it has only one terminal and is smaller than the other London area airports. However, this looks set to change in the very near future. In fact, by 2030, London City Airport will be able to service over 8 million passengers every year thanks to the major expansion plans in place.
During its first year in operation, London City Airport served 15,000 passengers, but that has leaped up to 3.2 million in 2008. This is largely because it flies to over 25 destinations within the UK and Europe and is in a very convenient location at just 9 miles outside of central London. There is also a train station located at the airport so it is easy to get to and ideal for business people that travel regularly.
