Gatwick Airport breaks single runway passenger record

Gatwick Airport is now in a league of its own as it breaks its own record for the number of passengers travelling on a single runway - more than 42 million passengers now travel through the airport annually. This new record was achieved on the same weekend that Cathay Pacific's new route to Hong Kong joins the airport's wide range of long-haul connections, further boosting Gatwick's links to China and the Far East.
