PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(28 August 2026)

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many non-military flights landed at RAF Northolt in each of the last three calendar years; and how many passengers were carried on those flights in each year.

Asked by:
Gareth Thomas (Labour)

The number of non-military flights that landed at RAF Northolt in each of the last three calendar years was as follows:

2023 - 3,638 landings

2024 - 3,987 landings

2025 - 3,660 landings

The number of passengers handled through the passenger terminal has only been tracked for 2025. For 2023 and 2024 it is not held centrally and could only be provided at disproportionate cost.

In 2025 the number of passengers (arriving and departing) was 13,044.
