"Gatwick Glow is designed to give our passengers a boost; we want them to head off on their holiday feeling great about themselves," said Gatwick Airport marketing manager Kim Francis.

"And with almost half of holiday makers (49%) worrying about burning on the first day, we’ve partnered with St. Tropez to offer the spray tan facility so passengers can fly off already sunkissed, which we hope will prevent them from overdoing it on the beach."
