British Airways, Easyjet and Virgin Atlantic will switch terminals at Gatwick this week.
From January 24, Easyjet will operate entirely from the North Terminal with BA and Virgin moving to the South Terminal on January 25.
Signs across the airport will change to display the correct way and 70 additional helpers will be on hand to point passengers in the right direction.
Gatwick is issuing the following advice to passengers flying with these three airlines during and after the moves:
- Check which terminal they need before travelling and arranging pick up and meeting points and allow plenty of time at the airport
- If they find themselves at the wrong terminal, they are advised to hop on the free transit shuttle that travels between the North and South Terminals in just two minutes
- Passengers should select a long stay car park close to the terminal that they are travelling from, as the bus that takes them from the car park to the airport travels to one terminal only; If they need to reach the other terminal, they can use the transit shuttle
- If they have already booked a car park, they don’t need to re-arrange, as they can use the transit shuttle to get to the correct place
- If they require help, ‘wayfinders’ will be located in and around the terminals dressed in high-visibility pink vests
