Heathrow airport, the UK’s biggest aviation hub, will open its mothballed Terminal 4 by July, as it predicts a recovery after its worst year in half-a-century.
Passenger numbers at Heathrow fell to 19.4m last year, the lowest since 1972. The airport’s bosses blame the UK’s tight travel restrictions for it being the only European hub to see a reduction in traffic in 2021, due to tighter travel restrictions than EU countries.
