The number of people that passed through the UK’s busiest airport returned to pre-pandemic levels last month.
Heathrow reported 5.4 million people travelled through it in January, making it the busiest start to a year since 2020, before COVID-19 was declared a pandemic.
The vast majority of the travellers – 1.6 million – were from the EU, followed by people from North America – 1.2 million.
In the period from February last year to January 2023, 64 million passengers travelled through the airport.
