Limitations
Summary
LHR is a very powerful airport, but it is seriously slowed down by having only one landing runway. This means that very few of its many stands will ever be full. It does benefit from having a lot of handling crew, so you can handle numerous A380s here, should you so wish.
Recommended strategies:
Summary
@Thatflyerguy suggests: Get a bunch of really close A21NXs, as they have very high xp per handling crew, and handle frequently. Late-game, if you want to use the airport as a hub, get E or F aircraft instead, to optimize for the runway, which is the limiting factor. unlike other large airports, you dont need to worry about handling crew, so A380 fleets are actually rather viable here.
Other information
LHR offers SYD as an unlock on level 81, and has 83 total levels. It has the worst performance of any airport in the game, and this has never been fixed.
