London International Airport aiming for 1 million customers annually by 2026

A major component of London’s flight coverage is sunny destinations like Orlando, Cancun and Punta Cana. Because of restrictions on which airports had international status for parts of the pandemic, the airport couldn’t offer those flights until late last year, missing the prime winter months for people seeking less snowy weather.
“The sun destinations are a big piece of it,” said McFadzean, adding that cargo transit is also important for the airport. While many people are returning to leisure travelling, McFadzean says business travel still needs to catch up. McFadzean acknowledges that with many people yet to return to the office, it will take more time for business travel to reach pre-pandemic numbers.Air Canada has three daily flights to Toronto and will offer a daily Montreal flight starting in June.Sunwing has weekly flights to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, Cancun, Mexico, and Varadero, Cuba, until mid-April.
Flair offers flights weekly to Tucson until March. Beginning in June, there will be flights to Vancouver and Halifax.
