How to navigate one of the world’s busiest airports
WHETHER YOU’RE ENDING YOUR AIR JOURNEY
OR CONNECTING TO ANOTHER FLIGHT, HERE’S
THE LOWDOWN ON LANDING AT HEATHROW
1 Touchdown to downtown
Want to speed through the airport and on to your final
destination? Simply pick your starting point and follow
the signs…
2 Choose your transport
Bus
Just follow signs in the airport for the Central
Bus Station, where there’s a choice of coach
and bus services into the city. There’s a travel
centre in the station that provides full service
details, or you can purchase tickets for the
Airbus Shuttle from the National Express
desk in the arrivals hall.
Underground
Follow signs for the London Underground,
where Piccadilly line trains leave every five
minutes at peak times, or every nine minutes
at off-peak times and weekends. It takes
around 50 minutes to get to Piccadilly Circus.
Trains run to Terminals 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Rail: Heathrow Express
This leaves the airport every 15 minutes
between 05:03 and 00:01, taking 15 minutes
to reach London’s Paddington station.
Taxi
These wait on the international arrivals
forecourt and take around 45 minutes to
get to central London.
Car rental
Car rental desks are located in the arrivals
halls. It takes approximately 45-60 minutes
to get to central London. When leaving
Terminal 1, follow exit signs to the access/
exit tunnel. Follow signs to the M4
motorway, which will eventually bring
you into London.
3 Hop off, hop on again
