ARRIVING AT LONDON HEATHROW Terminal 5 - London Heathrow Airport United Kingdom - Travel video

Arriving at London Heathrow Airport (LHR). If this is your first visit to London Heathrow Terminal 5 you should find this video helpful for getting an idea of the airport procedures when you arrive at London Heathrow Airport in the United Kingdom. This London Heathrow Airport footage is filmed from the disembarkation of our flight (a British Airways flight from Copenhagen), through the walk to arrivals area where we eventually purchase our London Underground rail tickets to London.

Our walk begins where we have just disembarked our plane and are walking through Heathrow Airport´s Terminal 5 towards Immigration / Passport Control. To get to the Heathrow Immigration / Passport Control area we take an Airport Train Shuttle. The Passport Control process at Heathrow Airport was very quick as we used the automated Passport scanner (we are EU citizens). After clearing Immigration we start to make our way to the Heathrow Airport Terminal 5 Baggage Claim area. We quickly claim our luggage and then make our way through the airport Customs area where you choose the red entrance if you have something to declare or the green entrance if you have nothing to declare. Once we have passed Heathrow Airports Customs we find our selves in the Heathrow Airport arrivals. The arrivals area is full of people / chauffeurs waiting to pick up passengers. We have decided that we will make our way into London City with the London Underground (The Tube) and therefore the process of where to buy tickets for the train from Heathrow Airport to London is covered too. In our case we were advised to buy the London Oyster Travel Card, and we give viewers a brief explanation of what that is.

All in all we found that Arriving at London Heathrow Airport Terminal 5 was easy and the airport signs were very good in pointing us in the right direction. The only issue / confusing part was whether or not we were supposed to use the Airport Shuttle transfer to get to the Immigration area or whether the Heathrow Airport Shuttle Train was only for passengers who had a transfer flight from Heathrow Airport (the train was for both arriving and transferring passengers).

Heathrow Terminal 5, "Heathrow Terminal 5 is an airport terminal at Heathrow Airport, the main airport serving London. Opened in 2008, the main building in the complex is the largest free-standing structure in the United Kingdom. Terminal 5 is currently used exclusively as one of the three global hubs of International Airlines Group, served by British Airways and Iberia... Prior to 2012, the terminal was used solely by British Airways... The terminal was designed to handle 35 million passengers a year. In 2015, Terminal 5 handled 33.1 million passengers on 215,716 flights; 44.6% of the airport's passengers on 46.6% of its flights with an average of 153 passengers per flight. It was the busiest terminal at the airport, measured both by passenger numbers and flight movements..."

God this helped me so much with my severe anxiety of travelling alone for the first time. Thank you!

I never write comments on videos, despite I watch hundred of videos every week, but I feel I have to write you to endlessly thank you for this very helpful video you guys uploaded. I was very fortunate to watch this video before flying to London with my daughter on a three day city trip. Everything happened exactly as it is shown, so the presence of stress or mishaps came to minimum, leaving us more room for joy than worries and that is something you appreciate in a short trip. Thanks again!

Brilliant, you guys! I haven't flown into Heathrow Terminal 5 in four years so this is a GREAT refresher/stress reliever.

We are flying to Heathrow with an autistic child. This video is like gold. Such a big help. Thank you so much.

[miniskittze]

I will fly to Heathrow on Sunday for the first of my life and I am so thankful for this explanation to the baggage reclaim and all the way to the exit. Thank you guys much 🙏🏻

[spook]

Thank you for sharing. My family and I made this trip in 2011 and 2016. In 2011 we didn't know what to expect so it was a sad surprise to find out we had to walk a ways, then go down stairs to the tram that was full, and then all the way back up and through security again. Heathrow is a beautiful airport but if you are transiting through, I recommend doing it when you have a 2+ hour layover for US/Europe flights. In 2016, we landed at Terminal 2 and had to go to Terminal 5, which included a lot of walking, elevators and a bus ride. And security. Again.

Thank you so much I don’t feel worried anymore after watching your video.

[jimyates]

I must agree with Daniel. I took a group of 20 to Nottingham, landing at Heathrow. Feeling a little anxious prior to the trip (knowing I was the group leader) I searched for a video that might give me an idea of what to expect. Behold! Your video came up and it helped me tremendously! Thank you so much for posting this and helping make the travel must less hectic! You are appreciated!

[mayaadams]

thank you so much for this! im flying 9 hours to heathrow tomorrow as a 15 year old unaccompanied minor on british airways and as they dont have an unaccompanied minor service i was really terrified too because no videos showed how to get around so thank you very very much for this i feel at ease a bit now although its still overwhelming ill keep watching this over and over again to help me more. thanks a lot again!!!

[catnoya]

Thank you so so much. I'm flying out tonight and this will be my first ever trip or plane ride without my family. I was very anxious but this video made me feel so much better!


Update: Everything went very smoothly! I knew exactly where to go because of this video (people who were confused were following me out), and I was out of the airport in ten minutes. Thank you so much guys!

[bushyconn]

Wow. If you aren't tired when you disembark, you surely will be by the time you gat on the underground train!! Great footage!

[muhammadosamaalmulki]

I miss Heathrow so much, it's a beautiful airport, I've been to 1.2 and 3 terminals several times, thanks for the nice video,

[RJnSD]

Seems like quite a trek from the plane to the underground train. The plus side, it's good exercise! Thank you for providing a detailed overview of what we can expect at Heathrow. Hope all is well with both of you. Ron

[Steve]

Great video, thank you. My wife and I travel a ton, but our adult grand sons will be traveling alone to meet us in London and we were looking for a video for them to watch to help prepare them for the immigration process. I had forgotten a great deal about the process including the train and yellow signs. This was perfect, Thank you!

[ladydelta]

[ziyadaljamoudi]
