About time……. Now for cancellation of 3rd runway at Heathrow, super fast connection between the two airports and a joint hub principle worked out…. Simples.

Nothing new. Gatwick has had an emergency runway since the late 80s. This application is to extend the usage for active usage

I think this is great for Gatwick and the surrounding area. Bringing investment and much needed further employment to the area. There is a fantastic opportunity for London Gatwick to lead the industry especially around sustainability and innovation to reduce the impacts this will have on the environment and create better conditions for both workers and travellers at Gatwick.

So irresponsible of a company to seek expansion in the full knowledge of the damage they are and will do with a 2nd runway

Can Manston Airport be re-opened (at lesser/similar cost) to provide the South East with added airport capacity plus allow the sharing of jobs and GVA in the UK regions?? Its larger runway has historically easily handled "inter-continental" commercial and cargo transport.

If there is an airport that deserves a second runway - it's LGW 😅

Creating thousands of new jobs for the area...building thousands of new houses across green and brown land and already over exhausted flood plains, creating thousands more cars on the local roads, creating thousands more pot holes and craters in our local roads, creating thousands more tonnes of polluted skies, not creating things that matter to the local communities like more local primary or secondary schools, more local Dr surgeries or hospitals, putting thousands more strains across an already over populated area, over strained educational and NHS system....Great news though Gatwick!
