Istanbul Poised to Overtake Heathrow as Europe’s Busiest Airport

                                Turkish Airlines aircraft are pictured on the tarmac of Istanbul Grand Airport

Istanbul is on track to surpass London Heathrow as Europe’s busiest airport as early as this year, according to Heathrow CEO Thomas Woldbye. He noted that Heathrow, long considered Europe’s premier aviation hub, is now operating near full capacity with only two runways, while Istanbul boasts five and continues expanding aggressively. 

Woldbye emphasized that this shift strengthens Heathrow’s argument for long‑delayed expansion plans, including a proposed new runway that has faced decades of political hurdles. The airport’s leadership argues that without additional capacity, London risks losing its competitive edge in global aviation. 

A New Angle: What This Means for European Aviation

If Istanbul officially claims the top spot, it could signal a broader realignment in European air travel. Turkey’s strategic geographic position—bridging Europe, Asia, and the Middle East—combined with the rapid growth of Turkish Airlines, positions Istanbul as a rising global connector. This shift may pressure other major European hubs, such as Paris Charles de Gaulle and Frankfurt, to accelerate modernization and expansion efforts to stay competitive.
