The next page on the agenda is the evacuation of Gatwick Airport and its railway station. This decision was made due to a police incident that has occurred. As a precaution, a large portion of the south terminal and the train station are being evacuated. Emergency services and law enforcement are currently handling the situation.
For the time being, the Gatwick Express, Southern, and Thameslink train services will not be making any stops at the airport's railway station. It is advised that passengers delay their travels until later this morning, if possible. National Rail has also urged people to avoid traveling to the station while the incident is being dealt with. They anticipate the disruptions to continue until 2pm.
According to a spokesperson from Gatwick Airport, the evacuation of the south terminal is being done as a precautionary measure while they investigate the security incident. Passengers will not be permitted to enter the south terminal during this time. The safety and security of all passengers and staff remain the top priority for the airport. They are working diligently to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
If you are currently on your way to the airport, National Rail advises that you disembark at Horley, Three Bridges, or Crawley and utilize local Metrobus services to reach the airport. To stay updated on the status of your flight, it is recommended that you check with your airline directly.
