London’s Heathrow Airport enjoyed its busiest ever January with a record 6.32 million passengers passing through its five terminals in the first month of 2025.
That number represented a 5% increase on the same month a year ago. It was also the 11th straight month in which the UK’s largest airport averaged more than 200,000 passengers a day.
Heathrow CEO Thomas Woldbye said: “2025 has started how we mean to go on – serving record breaking passenger numbers and delivering trade and investment across the whole of the UK.
“To ensure we continue on this upwards trajectory, the Government has signalled their support for an expanded Heathrow. We’ll now work with Ministers to progress the necessary policy changes required to advance our growth plans.”
