Known for being one of the world’s busiest airports, Gatwick Airport is a small but impactful facility that provides a multitude of services as well as relaxing amenities perfect for doing the most with your time. The airport structure is broken into two terminals; the South Terminal and the North Terminal. The South Terminal is home to three levels, while the North Terminal is home to two levels. The terminals aren’t connected, through a driverless people mover provides transfers from one building to the other – additional ground transportation includes rides to downtown London via the Gatwick Airport Railway Station’s Brighton Main Line as well as the Gatwick Express. National Express also provide coaches and shuttles to Heathrow Airport as well as other nearby cities & towns.
