Taylor Swift fans and Olympic visitors helped push record-breaking numbers of passengers to travel through Heathrow between June and September, prompting the airport to consider reinstating its dividend for the first time in four years.
The UK’s biggest airport said there had been multiple consecutive weeks with record passenger numbers during the school holidays, with 30.7 million travellers passing through from June to September – bringing the total for the first nine months of the year to 63.1 million.
