Gatwick Airport confirm plans to improve South Terminal arrivals

Gatwick Airport has confirmed plans to improve arrivals into the South Terminal from the Channel Islands.

The move follows a petition calling for transport links to be improved for passengers, to make it easier to access the arrivals building from the plane.

The petition highlights that currently passengers are boarded onto buses and taken to another part of the terminal where they have to climb flights of stairs to access the arrivals terminal.

The airport says it will provide a new walking route which should be in place by 2019.
