Good to know

Why are "lands" and "at the gate" different?

After touching down, the plane still has to taxi to its stand. At Gatwick that usually takes about 5 to 10 minutes. Airport screens show the time at the gate.

How long until they come out of arrivals?

Usually around 30 minutes after the plane reaches the gate with hand luggage, and 45 minutes with a suitcase. Passport queues can add more at busy times.

North or South Terminal?

It depends on the airline, so check before you set off. A free shuttle train links the two terminals and takes a few minutes.

How up to date is this?

We update Gatwick's flights regularly through the day, and the page refreshes itself while it's open. Times can change quickly, so always check with your airline too.
