The heliport is a CAA licensed aerodrome (Ordinary Category) as detailed in the UK AIP. It provides a local Air Traffic Service and Category H2 Rescue and Fire Fighting Services.

Permitted Opening Hours
07:00 to 23:00 (7 days a week)

Normal Operating Hours (unless prior arrangement made)
Monday – Friday: 07:30 to 19:30
Weekend & Bank Holidays: 08:00 to 18:00

Extended Operating Hours (All times local)
Extended operating periods are based on the Actual Arrival Time and Departure Times.

Requests for evening or late extensions should be made by 19:30 on the same day (18:00 at weekends). All requests for early extensions should be made by at least 18:00 on the previous day.

Non-Operational hours
No flights are permitted between 23:00 and 07:00. Only exceptions to this rule are flights for the purpose of medical or a national emergency.

Last permitted movements
Aircraft arriving to park overnight must be on the ground by 22:55 and aircraft looking to depart must be airborne by 22:45. ATC will refuse arrival or departure if these times are exceeded. This is to allow for:

• Monitoring of departing aircraft in case of any emergency requiring return to the heliport
  
• Sufficient time for ATC to obtain departure clearance for outbound aircraft

Helicopter types permitted
All commercial and military helicopter types are permitted to land at London Heliport, although there are specific operational regulations covering larger aircraft in Groups 6 & 7 (see pricing table for categories):

• Group 6 – AB139 is only permitted to park in Spot 3 (next to the fuel bay)
  
• Group 7 – All helicopters are restricted to performing drops on the FATO (exc. SA322 Puma Mk1 which can taxi inboard subject to prior permission)
