All flights at London City Airport have been disrupted after protesters gained access to the runway, according to the BBC.
The Met Police said it was called to the site at about 05:40 BST after nine protesters "locked themselves together" on the runway.
The Black Lives Matter UK movement has confirmed it is responsible for the protest.
The airport said inbound flights were being diverted and it hoped to "resume operations as soon as possible".
