Gatwick Airport has achieved the busiest single month in its 80 year history as 4.6 million passengers travelled through the airport in July. The figure represents a 6.9 per cent increase on the same month last year. Long-haul routes continue their impressive growth at the airport, growing 23 per cent collectively versus last July, against a backdrop of traffic growth stalling at other major European airports, as reported by the Airports Council International this week.
