London Biggin Hill Extends Operating Hours
Operators of the dedicated general aviaiton airport say the move will increase the location's flexibility and capacity.

Starting this week, London-area gateway Biggin Hill Airport has extended its operating hours by two hours on weekdays from 6:30 a.m. until 11 p.m. (local time), and by three hours on weekends and public holidays, from 8 a.m. until 10 p.m. According to the airport’s operators, London Biggin Hill has seen unprecedented growth over the past year, attributable mainly to activity in the ultra-long-range business jet segment. “Our investment in introducing extended operating hours further enhances our reputation for affording our customers unrivalled flexibility and capacity,” said Robert Walters, the airport’s business development director. “Our close proximity to the city center, combined with our new hours, enables our North American and Middle East clients, in particular, to have a productive day trip to London.”
