Ticket prices set to rise by 15p as Heathrow able to recover runway project money

Heathrow Airport has been given permission to increase ticket prices by 15p to help recover costs associated with its runway project. The airport will be able to charge airlines more to use the hub, which is expected to be passed on to consumers in the form of higher fares. Airlines will likely absorb the increased costs and then factor them into their ticket prices, resulting in higher costs for flyers. The price increase is intended to help Heathrow recoup its investment in the runway project.
