Rugby star Ellie Kildunne to be voice of Heathrow Airport this Christmas
Rugby World Cup winner Ellie Kildunne will be the voice of Heathrow Airport this Christmas.
The west London airport said messages from the 26-year-old England star will be played over its public address system during the festive period.
She will tell passengers “the world feels a little brighter at Christmas”, and for her it is a time for “reconnecting, recharging and remembering what really matters”.
Heathrow is preparing for its busiest festive season, with more than seven million passengers forecast to travel through its four terminals in December.
Kildunne said: “Christmas is a time for celebration and for me, I’m looking forward to marking what a big year it’s been.
“I’m honoured to be involved in the festivities at Heathrow this year – whether that be passengers reconnecting with loved ones or stepping onto their holiday flight, I’ll be on the tannoys bringing the Christmas cheer for all.”
Daniel Edwards, director of services at Heathrow, said: “Christmas is a truly special time at Heathrow, as thousands of passengers reunite with loved ones and begin their festive journeys.
“By partnering with Ellie as our first-ever voice of Britain, we’re adding a unique seasonal touch to the airport experience, that we hope will spark some joy and get travellers into the Christmas spirit from the moment they arrive at Heathrow.”
