London Southend Airport SEN is not only Greater London's, but also  Britain's & Europe's fastest-growing airport - operated by London Southend Airport Co. The evident success of London Southend Airport is attributable to its continuous upgrade, and its promise that passengers wait no more than four minutes to go through security, and arriving passengers with only carry-ons travel from plane to train within 15 mins of exiting the aircraft.  It also was also named 'Best Little Airport in Britain' for the second time.

SEN Airport is located about 40 miles east of Central London, and 38 miles from Stratford, and is just off motorway A127, which in turn offers access to motorways M25, A13, A12 & on to Central London - taking about one hour.
