If you are connecting on to another flight through Gatwick there are different rules you need to follow depending where you’re arriving from and departing to, whether your hold bags are checked through to your final destination and if you have your boarding card.
Minimum connection times
If you are connecting onto another flight at Gatwick and you already hold a boarding pass for your onward flight, we recommend that you allow a minimum connection time of 60 minutes for same terminal transfers and 90 minutes if your flights arrive and depart from different terminals. Your airline may have different minimum connection time requirements, so please always check with them before you book your onward connection.
If you have to collect your bags and clear immigration before checking-in for another flight we suggest you check with that airline for their minimum connection time.
International flights connecting to the UK and Ireland
If you’re arriving at Gatwick from an international flight and are connecting to a destination within the UK or Ireland, you will need to go through immigration. If your hold bags are through checked or you’re travelling with hand luggage only, you can then go straight to security.
If your hold bags aren’t through checked, you must collect them first. Follow signs to baggage reclaim – you will need to pass through Passport Control on your way – and then either use our free GatwickConnects service or go to check-in for your next flight.
If you need to change terminals, you can take our free shuttle 24 hours a day.
