Depending on the criteria used, Heathrow airport has many mind-boggling numbers
associated with it.
It was the third-busiest airport in terms of passenger numbers
in 2011.
It is preceded by the Atlanta International Airport and the Beijing
Capital International airport.
The airport is owned and operated by BAA limited.
Official results released in the third quarter of 2011 indicated that over 52
million people had come through the airport in the first three quarters of the
year.
Using a Heathrow airport taxi is one of the fastest ways to get to the
airport from central London, a distance of 14 miles.
Fares charged by Heathrow
airport taxis may vary, but they are a convenient means of travel to the airport.
The airport has employed over 72,000 employees and covers an area of 1,227
hectares.
The airport has five terminals and only two main runways.
A third runway
was approved in 2009, but a lack of political support makes it unclear when the
runway will be constructed.
