"With UK airports on course to handle hundreds of thousands more flights per year, the communities at the bottom of our rankings face the prospect of conditions deteriorating significantly."
"The record passenger numbers we saw in 2025 are not a blip - they reflect the structural growth of aviation."
"What's already the worst aircraft noise in Britain could get meaningfully worse."
"The people living beneath it deserve to know what they're dealing with and what's likely coming."
A study reveals that over a quarter of a million households in Britain are affected by severe aircraft noise, particularly in South London's Kennington, the worst-affected area. The analysis ranks postcode districts by noise exposure, with London dominating the list. The findings coincide with record passenger numbers at UK airports and expansion plans that could add 600,000 flights annually. Experts warn that communities already facing significant noise may experience even worse conditions in the future.
