Investigation under the Airport Charges Regulations 2011 of Heathrow’s 2022 charges consultation – Preliminary View for consultation

This document sets out our Preliminary View on an investigation initiated following a complaint from Virgin Atlantic Airways (VAA) alleging that Heathrow Airport Limited (HAL) breached some of its obligations under the Airport Charges Regulations 2011, including that it had failed to provide lawful consultation on its proposed 2022 airport charges, during its annual consultation process for airport charges.

This Preliminary View is provided to HAL and VAA to give them an opportunity to make representations to us before we reach our final decision. We are also publishing this Preliminary View to allow any other interested parties to comment and provide written representations.
