How airline travel has developed

  • The opening of Heathrow

    Heathrow Airport officially opened in March 1946 and it started as a small airfield and has grown into one of the busiest airports. When it first opened it was much smaller than it is today and it managed flights to Europe. It consisted of a few runways and temporary buildings. It expanded overtime to accommodate the amount of people.

    How has air travel changed in the last 80 years?

    Air travel has changed massively over the last 80 years. It used to be a luxury for the wealth with limited routes but is now available to anyone who pays. It's more accessible, comfortable, there are larger planes and even budget airlines. Safety has improved massively, smoking isn't allowed stricter regulations and advances in technology and even entertainment on flights like Wi-Fi. This makes long journeys much more enjoyable for people.
