HUMBERSIDE AIRPORT


HUMBERSIDE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IS ON THE RUNWAY TO GROWTH.


Already the second busiest heliport in the UK, due to the buoyant North Sea offshore industries, it is also anticipating significant increases in plane traffic as the government aims to grow regional airports. This could see total passenger numbers at the Humber hub rise from 310,000 a year to 10 million by 2030.


HELIPORT Helicopter movements – currently about a thousand a month – are on an upwards curve in partnership with two world- leading operators, CHC and Bristow, to carry personnel and high value electronic components to North Sea gas rigs.


“In addition to having a heliport of national significance, we are planning for significant growth in airport traffic, which will come from many sources, including renewable energy developments around the Humber,” says Simon Whitby, General Manager.


“Our ongoing investment programme will increasingly make us the airport of choice for Hull, the region’s biggest population centre.”


REPUTATION Humberside International Airport has an excellent reputation for quality of service, and this was validated by a recent customer satisfaction poll rating it as the UK’s favourite airport.


A long-standing relationship with KLM, with three flights a day to Amsterdam to connect with global flights, has seen the airport become an international travel centre, and it is anticipated that the next few years will see an exponential increase in long and short haul destinations.


INVESTMENT To support all of this increased activity, the airport has invested £1m on updating its instrument landing system to provide helicopters and planes with full electronic guidance, allowing flights to go ahead in conditions that would previously have grounded them. A new hold baggage screening system is also being installed this year ensuring the airport is ahead of new regulations, costing a further £600,000.


OVERNIGHT ACCOMMODATION Hull company Nightel has opened a 100-bedroom hotel on site for rig personnel while further improvements include more development land being made available and building new maintenance hangers for the growing helicopter fleet.
