The 2nd of August was the busiest day on record with 257,312 passengers passing through.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Arrival figures for August 2015 were sky high, with 3.75 million passengers landing at the airport<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The number of seats per aircraft increased 2.3% on August 2014 to an average of 209.8 and load factors increased by 0.4% to an average of 84%.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Within the emerging markets, cargo volumes were up 8.6% to China, 11.3% to Mexico and 36.9% to Turkey on the previous August.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Polls from <a title=\"Populus\" href=\"http:\/\/laweb.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Populus<\/a> show that half of the residents in 12 local constituencies support the expansion of Heathrow whilst 33% oppose it. 57% of those residents feel positive about Heathrow and only 8% have negative feelings towards it.<\/p>\n<p>Heathrow CEO John Holland-Kaye said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith more local residents supporting Heathrow than opposing it, and with the backing of the Airports Commission, airlines, trade unions and businesses across the country, Heathrow expansion is the right and deliverable solution for the whole of the UK. Every month that we delay is costing our economy \u00a31bn. The Prime Minister has a mandate to give Heathrow the green light &#8211; let\u2019s get on with it.\u201d<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n
