London City airport has reported a surge in passengers this May after numbers steadily climbing throughout 2022, and has now passed its one-million-passenger milestone for the year following two years of logging passengers below that level.

London City said the return of Billund flights marked a major resumption of business services

The airport said it is confident of closing out the year with three million passengers having passed through its terminal.


May saw 290,000 passengers fly from City airport, up from 256,000 in April, and representing 65% of 2019 figures for the same period. The total number of travellers using the airport this year is already 29% higher than in 2021.
