i lived around the corner from heathrow so i always used it but its about half the cost if you fly into gatwick from calgary. just using gatwick, luton, stanstead or city airport is 10x cheaper for any flight than using heathrow.....heathrow, being one of the worlds biggest airports is gonna have some high operating costs, hence why all flights out of there are always way, way more than gatwick, luton, stanstead or city

well before a few seasons in the uk, id spent every winter in either calgary or regina, regina was bitter bitter cold, but calgary was wayyyyy wayyyy wayyy warmer than london, with about 9 million times more sunshine, spend a complete winter there and the dampness and darkness will eat you alive.
