Any substantial increase in capacity at Gatwick will only lead to an increase in noise, light and air pollution, none of which is desirable. With fewer people travelling for work (as online conferencing has taken off so well since the pandemic) I cannot see how the demand can be double that of pre-Covid times to warrant the extra capacity. It would also, presumably, require further building to accommodate the increase in passengers, putting further pressure on our precious green belt land.
