Arguably a second runway at Gatwick is more practical and a lot cheaper

The commission found that both the costs and the benefits were lower at
Gatwick, but Heathrow was better overall.


For whom exactly other than Heathrow Plc and its spanish owners?


They weren't measuring benefits to airport owners.

There is no Heathrow plc. If you actually meant Heathrow Airport Holdings
Limited, it's only 25% Spanish-owned.

Gatwick is also foreign-owned.
