લંડન હીથ્રો એક નવી કઠોર વાસ્તવિકતાનો સામનો કરે છે

આ લેખમાંથી શું દૂર કરવું:

• Together with last week's warning from the Bank of England that inflation is set to pass 10% and that the UK economy will likely ‘slide into recession' means we are taking a realistic assessment that travel demand will reach 65% of pre-pandemic levels overall for the yearHeathrow's largest carrier British Airways announced last week that it is expecting a return to only 74% of pre-pandemic travel this year – just 9% more than Heathrow's forecasts which have proven to be amongst the most accurate in the industry during the pandemic Heathrow expects to remain lossmaking throughout this year and does not forecast paying any dividends to shareholders in 2022.
• To maintain the service our passengers expect over the summer, we will be reopening Terminal 4 by July and are already recruiting up to 1,000 new security officers The ongoing war in Ukraine, higher fuel costs, continuing travel restrictions for key markets like the United States, and the potential for a further variant of concern create uncertainty going forward.
•   Some airlines have predicted a return to profitability this quarter and expect to resume paying dividends as a result of the ability to charge increased faresThe CAA is in the final stages of setting Heathrow's airport charge for the next five years.
