Taking into account the new bans imposed by the governments of the countries, travel restrictions and the fact that more and more airlines have suspended flights, London City Airport will be closed to commercial and private flights.
London City Airport will be closed from March 25 to April 30, 2020, but with the possibility to extend the period. All this time, the staff of London City Airport will remain employed and will be at the "disposal" of the authorities in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
London City Airport will close
London City Airport is the 12th busiest airport in the UK. In 2019, the airport was crossed by 5.5 million passengers. Located near the financial district, London City Airport is very popular with business people.
Let's not forget that British Airways operates all-business flights on the route London City Airport - New York. They were honored with Airbus A318 aircraft. But due to the pandemic with the new coronavirus, British Airways has suspended flights on this route between March 24 and October 25, 2020.
