• One Runway Wonder: For many years, Gatwick was the world’s busiest single-runway airport. Even today, its efficiency in managing hundreds of flights a day on one primary strip of tarmac is studied by aviation experts worldwide.
• The World’s First Circular Terminal: Gatwick’s original 1930s terminal, known as “The Beehive,” was the first circular airport terminal in the world. While no longer used for flights, the stunning building still stands today as a commercial office space.
• Skybridge Views: The North Terminal features a massive passenger bridge that is high enough for a Boeing 747 to taxi underneath it. It offers passengers incredible “birds-eye” views of the aircraft below.
• Gatwick Express: It features a dedicated rail link that runs every 15 minutes, taking passengers directly to London Victoria in just half an hour.
