I'm sure when HS2 is done, we will see London Birmingham Airport
why doesn't London have 7 airports?
Yesss
Well RAF Northolt would count but it’s only private jets so idk
Why doesn't London have 8 airports?
It has London Oxford airport
@@Shirou_Atsuya_Fubukiit has The London Biggin Hill Airport
La is a bit crazy too with 5 airports, LAX, SNA, ONT, BUR, LGB.
SBD should also count, so LA metro also has 6 airports.
You could even kinda include San Bernardino Airport (SBD) into that mix
SBD should count because breeze operates their
Hawthorne is also right next to LAX
You can include SBD and Palm Springs if you really wanna get technical
London Gatwick is the preferred airport for many people
Gatwick was an international airport before the war it was a subsidiary airport for the original Croydon Airport which Heathrow replaced.
Thanks for the informative video!
Oxford Airport also rebranded to London Oxford Airport in 2009...so I think London now has 7 airports now.
Oxford isn't a commercial airport and is definitely not near London so probably not, but it would be funny if it were!
@@rexisepic Also London
Biggin Hill
Berlin had 3 commercial airports 20 year ago. Now we are down to 1.
And (although I'm in and out of it often) not the best airport I've ever seen. However it has improved enormously recently (my last few trips ❤)
They somehow managed to actually open Brandenburg haha
Hi broadway, love ur videos a lot! Please post more, can’t wait! Love ur channel and vids! ❤️ 💖
Thank you so much!!
London could take the Osaka Kansai or the Seoul Incheon route and make an artificial island and build a mega hub in it, although it probably is gonna be expensive.
Because other Cities in Asia only built airport only after the rise of Civil Aviation. Their strategy is more airlines hub oriented where you concentrate as much traffic to one hub as possible where the flag carrier is located. If they wanted to build a new airport typically they abandoned the old one and repurpose the land for urban development.
Beijing's new Daxing airport, which will eventually become the world's busiest, was built at a cost of £9 billion. To put that into perspective, building a third runway at Heathrow is projected to cost £14 billion (the cost projection was as of 2019 and work has not begun yet)
But then, the government of China didn't have to deal with the *GIGANTIC* expense of land acquisition to build Beijing Daxing Airport, given how the Chinese government works. That was the same advantage Istanbul Airport (which opened in 2018) and Seoul Incheon (which opened in 2001) had, because they were built relatively well away from built-up areas.
You get them when you have no challenges, protests and government change
It would have been worth it to mention the airports are also due to very high demand - London until only recently usurped as the worlds most popular tourist destination, and 170 million air passengers pa (180m before pandemic). The runways are some of the most used at absolute capacity -Gatwick recently usurped as the world's busiest single runway by Delhi, and a famous insta-shot of several planes lining up to land on clear days.
Paris has 4 airports with ORY, CDG, BVA and XCR (which is more cargo oriented but still has passengers)
NYC metro also has 6; JFK, EWR, LGA, ISP, TED and FRD
I came here to say that
FRD is in Washington?
Do you mean HPN
Yea I was gonna say that because I was just looking up a couple of these and some of them don’t make sense like FRD. FRD is in Washington but TED is NOT a real airport at all.
@@JustinPark. They probably mean TEB which is Teterboro NJ. Just for private jet traffic tho. Doesn't super count.
Makes sense. Thanks for the info
Please make a video about Kuala Lumpur International Airport a.k.a KLIA
LA metro has 6 with LAX, Burbank, Long Beach, Santa Ana, Ontario and San Bernardino. Then also several GA airports.
This video is just counting Commercial Airports, if you include all London’s GA airports the total becomes around 15
Americans feeling the need to point out they are not "outdone" by a city having 6 airports.
The vid is "Why does London..."
If they're closing some airports, they can be converted to like racing tracks
Toronto has 3 airports:
- Toronto Pearson International (7 runways, 8th one being added very soon)
- Billy Bishop (Downtown Toronto) 2 runways
- Hamilton International (3 runways)
Croydon airport?
0:59 This is Greater London. London City (“the City”) is 1.5 square miles in the middle of Greater London.
I wouldn't be surprised that London will assign Heathrow for long-distance international flights only and Gatwick for shorter distance international flights. Gatwick could get a major upgrade to the Gatwick Express train so it could handle the increased traffic for the shorter distance international flights.
London is also very fortunate for the opening of the Channel Tunnel, which makes it possible for long-distance high-speed trains from continental Europe to service London itself. We could get a lot more high-speed rail service through the Channel Tunnel, though that may require some rebuilding of London St. Pancras Station to accommodate the increased international high-speed rail traffic.
Basically in narrows down to ineffective planning without foreseeing the future.
Interesting and thank you for answering a question I had about all the London airports. I had it in my head that the reason was that London was a hub of all traffic destined to North America. Originally, I am from the Los Angeles basin in California. What is LAX, the international funnel to traffic bound for the west coast but also Asia. The airport location was the US defense of the Pacific Theater during the war. But a lot of housing in Los Angeles had/was creeping closer to the coast, and what was coming into Long Beach harbor (very close to the new LAX) was commercial shipping that was booming after the war also.
The Los Angeles basin sported an Air Force airport that was winding down after the Vietnam war, large enough to be about the same size area that LAX takes. It was in the center of Orange county, about 40 miles (64km) south of LAX. A perfect location. That is until Orange County leadership looked at what a mess LAX had made of everything, and that same mess looked like what the OC location of an international airport might turn into if plans went forward. Air traffic would be going over some of the most desirable, scenic and some of the most popular beaches in the world. Orange County put up the Mother of All NIMBY campaigns (Not In My Back Yard). We could argue that Money Talks, which whether we like it or not, in a capitalist society, it does. Fancy shops, multi-million dollar homes and restaurants that makes your eyes bleed when you see the price of a hamburger--it makes my socialist heart burst into flames to defend people that should be denuded of their millions, but, gosh, even rich people have rights.
Ontario International--I believe the last piece of big government property available in the Los Angeles basin, though I think it is closer to Las Vegas, Nevada than LA, lol. If you have ever watch TV movies and TV shows from the 1960-1980s involving someone coming in/leaving an anonymous-looking third world country airport, Ontario would be the location it would be shot at. They have it blueprinted to allow for future expansion, to hopefully relieve problems before they happen. BrightLine is constructing a high-speed rail between Lost Wages and LA. All of this might relieve some of the horrendous traffic between LA and Las Vegas. Driving that little patch of road was one of the last things I did before I fled LA. 225 miles (361km) through unending bland suburbs, then through part of the Mojave desert to Sin City. That's 225 miles, 361 kilometers of stop and go driving. Children are born on interstate 15! For all I know the McDonald's, off the next exit~! might even have a baptismal font.
Great show with a lot of information I have heard first, here! Thank you for your efforts!
6 airports but in total only 7 runways. Chicago O hare alone has 8 runways.
Moscow has four airports: SVO, DME, VKO and ZIA.
yeah, Moscow and London are the only two cities with more than three commercial airports.
TLDR: Bad planning, kinda. The fact that London got into the game of aviation very early on, when it was the 3rd biggest city in the world, meant that there wasn't a lot of land around, even back then. Also, as mentioned, nobody knew how big flying would become or more importantly, how big planes and airports would become (people thought that air travel would be much more point-to-point than it ended up being). By the time the government realised the way things were going, the greenbelt had been established and there were many settlements around London that had been there for 1000s of years, with a lot of history to preserve. Also, while London itself is relatively flat, a lot of the land around London that isn't currently built on is quite undulating, and would require a lot of earthworks to flatten a big area out for building an airport. The only land that IS flat, is in the east (Thames estuary), and that is the worst location for accessing the rest of the country on land, because anyone who wants to travel on to other cities would have to travel around London to get there, or they'd have to build a massive tunnel under the Thames. Boris Johnson was campaigning to build a new airport over there at a location called Cliffe, but it was deemed unworkable for many reasons. Finally there's the aspect of climate change and how really we should be building more high speed rail for short to medium length journeys and making better use of things like the Channel Tunnel to get to Europe, rather than adding more flights.
good information👍🏻
You forgot the private airports like biggin hill for private jets
Is it safe to say that LCY is to London as LGA is to New York?
No, it’s much smaller and only accepts small regional-sized jets (A220-100, and E-190)
@@jwil4286 no LGA is a major airport, like DCA in DC
@@a_goblue2023 but isn’t IAD the main one for DC the way JFK is for NY?
@@jwil4286 IAD is the international hub more like EWR or JFK, and hub for United airlines, basically all domestic traffic goes to DCA, it gets the same number of passengers annually as IAD
In Sri lanka most of the current Airports are formerly british air bases
Paris have 4 commercial airport not 2 there are : Charles de gaule / orly / (low cost ) beauvais like luton and stansted . And it also own like london a last airport : Paris le bourget ( there is a very popular airshow here ) this airport is like london city with only bussiness jets and sometimes airliner but it's very rare
nah i would way prefer london with 6 airports than 1 large one, so I can pick which airport to fly from each time depending on whether its a short trip to Europe or long haul one. It also introduces tiered pricing between airports so I can get a cheaper ticket simply by flying from another airport. Not to mention different loung amenities, comfort levels and travelling durations.
It’s illegal for it to be a good and proper airport 0:48
Warsaw has got Chopin Radom Lublin Modlin and Bablice Warsaw is wery smaller for London.
technically it has seven because biggin hill
It has six airports because they can’t expand Heathrow 😂
There’s 8 London airports
@@charliekillick8989 he’s only counting ones that service commercial traffic
Why? Because 5 was too few.
there is 7 airports in london
what is the 6th?
Paris CDG is an absolute shithole with the only link into Paris being the Uber or the hugely unreliable B. The best airport for a kick-arse take off is LCY. E190 sports car take-offs are the one. You get a good view of London if you were to do a missed approach. Queue times and getting anywhere in london on the DLR is so convenient. I'd rather fly out of LCY for business trips than LHR, if starting off from Paddington
Heathrow is (I believe) the only airport with over 70M passengers per year with only 2 runways. Massive bottleneck to growth.
Dubai is the only other
It doesnt😂
Because they don't have 7.
blud thinks hes jay foreman
Better than the pathetic ewr, jfk and lga
Interesting history, and nice video! Next time, though, choose a different sponsor than Ruzzian Z company that makes War Thunder. Just because they moved out of Ruzzia in 2015 or 2022 doesn't make them not a Z still developing in Ruzzia.
300th like
London doesn't have six airports. It has two at most. London City and London Heathrow. In my opinion.
As far as I am concerned London has only two airports, Heathrow and City as both are within the boundaries of London.
Take Luton airport for instance. , it is owned by the Borough of Luton and has always been a crappy airport. Then they changed the name to London Luton Airport to, hopefully, increase business and they actually succeeded but it is still a crappy airport
Pretty sure London doesnt have six airports unless you think London covers the whole of england. Gatwick is gatwick, not london gatwick, its in crawley. Luton is in bedfordshire. stansted is in essex. just because they put the word london before it doesnt means its in friggin London.
All useless they are not 24/24
That is very common in Europe...
London doesn’t have 6 airports
why is London so overrated?
Because Londoners and Englanders don’t care as much about the environment as they the care about their holidays abroad.
