At an airline conference which I attended earlier this week, the US Manager of mighty airline, Air China let slip that they were seriously considering adding new flights to London but not to their present base at Heathrow but instead there were to use London Gatwick Airport, Add this news to the recent arrival here at Gatwick of Air Asia X (to Kuala Lumpur) next month's launch of Vietnam Airlines direct flight to Hanoi and HO Chi Minh City; Korean Airlines to Seoul from March 2012, Lufthansa's double daily to Frankfurt connecting with its worldwide network and new Business class only flights from Hong Kong Airlines and you can see that the newly refurbished, redeveloped and re-engineered terminal at Gatwick airport are set for a very, very busy 2012 !
