- The UK's fourth busiest airport, Stansted is the fastest growing in Europe. It has 1 terminal and 1 main runway. Stansted serves 20 different airlines to approximately 114 locations worldwide. Stansted is located about 30 miles (48 km) north-east of London. Plans are in place to boost the airports capacity to handle 25 M passengers a year. However, the terminal extension was completed in 2008 and in 2010 Stansted was allowed to handle superjumbos (Airbus A380). In 2013, Manchester Airports Group acquired Stanstead. The international departure lounge was redeveloped in 2013/2014. 16 new shops have been created including a 3.000 sqm World Duty Free Store and the largest Next duty-free store..
