Heathrow wanted changes to fund multi-billion pound upgrade, but airlines had warned steep rises would be passed on to passengers
The UK aviation regulator has partially rejected plans by Heathrow to significantly raise its landing fees to fund a multi-billion pound upgrade, arguing the airport can still invest without steep hikes to ticket prices.
The Civil Aviation Authority said the average charge per passenger should rise from £28.40 to £28.80 between 2027 and 2031.
