Gatwick Chief Vows No More ‘Second Child’ to Heathrow

London’s Gatwick airport plans to cut fees, improve rail links and lure long-haul carriers in a bid to boost the annual passenger count as much as 40 percent and better compete with the U.K. capital’s dominant Heathrow hub.

Infrastructure improvements and more competitive rates for airlines could help lift traffic at Gatwick, already the world’s busiest single-runway airport, to as many as 45 million people, Chief Executive Officer Stewart Wingate said in an interview.
