answer text <p>The Government has fully assessed the impact of expansion in the South East on the UK’s connectivity. As set out in Chapter 3 of the Updated Appraisal Report. The Government is clear that a Northwest Runway at Heathrow will help to secure the UK’s status as a global aviation hub, while regional airports will continue to develop their point-to-point networks.</p><p> </p><p>This conclusion is supported by the analysis which shows that passenger numbers and international flights at airports outside London are expected to increase by 80% and 71% respectively between 2016 and 2050 with a third runway at Heathrow. In addition, passengers from all across the UK are expected to use the connections made available at an expanded Heathrow, with nearly 6 million additional trips from passengers outside London and the South East being made via the airport in 2040.</p><p> </p><p>The expected number of Air Transport Movements at each of the listed airports, both with and without expansion, is given in Annex E (Tables 66 &amp; 67) of the UK Aviation Forecasts 2017 report.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p>
