London’s Heathrow airport saw an increase in Indian passenger arrivals last year.
In 2013, the airport received 8.7% more Indian passengers as compared to the previous year. Arrivals from China saw the maximum increase at 18.9%, while BRIC passengers in total increased 6.9% over the year.
“Our passenger figures reflect the growing demand for the long-haul destinations only a hub airport can support. Yet Heathrow is full, leaving European hubs to add destinations whilst we look on,” said Colin Matthews, CEO for Heathrow.
Over 2013, Heathrow handled 72.3m passengers, an increase of 3.4% on 2012.
