United Kingdom: 2023 Business Aviation Destination Guide
Summary
For tech stops, a general aviation report is submitted to Customs, Immigration, and Quarantine (CIQ) authorities, who will process the information and determine if a clearance is required. For example, making a tech stop at London Heathrow (EGLL) is inadvisable due to slot availability, permit issues, and long taxi delays because of airport congestion. In all cases, you’ll need to provide a full schedule, tail number, complete crew/passenger passport information, and insurance valid for the European Union. Security screening regimes are in place for charter (non-scheduled commercial) flights with 19 or more seats each or Maximum Takeoff Weights (MTOWs) of over 10 metric tons each. While large international UK airports – such as Heathrow (EGLL) – have the equipment to effectively deal with snow, smaller airfields – such as Biggin Hill (EGKB) – may take longer to reopen after a heavy snowfall.
