Thank you for your support and understanding.

About filming, photography and recording permits

  • Generally, a request for a permit must be made at least four working days before the required date.
  • Security will remove anyone filming, photographing or recording without permission.
  • The location fee takes into account the number of people involved in the shoot, the time required and the impact on airport operations.
  • Permission can only be granted if the applicant can demonstrate that they have at least £5 million in public liability insurance (£50 million if filming on the airfield).
  • All permits issued are location and time specific.
  • Applicants wishing to film, photograph or record airline property or staff must first obtain the airline's permission.
  • Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate non-professional filming or photography
