With its spacious and passenger-friendly layout, Stansted is London's fastest growing airport with 8 million travelers passing through its gates. When opened in 1991, that figure was only 2 million. A single, modern terminal houses restaurants, shopping facilities and a comfy lounge for relaxing before your flight. With the construction of a second runway by 2012, Stansted would be able to handle more passengers (up to 80 million per year) than Heathrow does today.
