ULEZ and drop-off charges will add £36 to the travel cost of using the UK’s biggest airport, according to a report by the Automobile Association.

In a report on Tuesday, the AA warned that holidaymakers booking late summer flights out of Heathrow are “blind” to the threat of Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) charges for driving to the airport in older cars.
