Heathrow Airport

At time of writing, there are 4 open terminals at Heathrow

, 1,3,4 & 5. (terminal 2 is currently closed).Each terminal has a myriad of shops, restaurants and facilities for you to choose from. (too many to mention but let's just say you could shop and eat for days!!)Travel between terminals depends on which two you are traveling between. Terminals 1 and 3 are close together at the centre of the airport and joined by an underpass with moving walkways. Simply follow the signs for your terminal. For all other terminals, there is the Heathrow Express rail shuttle. (Make sure you board the correct train). If you prefer, buses run between the terminals. This service is free and buses stop close to the terminals. The destinations are clearly marked to the front of the buses, but if you feel unsure, ask the driver.

If you are renting a car from Heathrow here is a list of the agencies that serve the terminals:

Car Rental (on airport):

Avis Budget, Europcar/National/Alamo,Enterprise, Hertz

Car Rental (off airport):

Dollar Thrifty, Sixt
