London's iconic black cabs are available at designated taxi ranks outside all terminals. The fares are metered, and it is the only taxi service that can be hailed directly at the airport. Pre-booked private hire vehicles (minicabs), including app-based services like Uber, are also available for pickup at designated areas.
Major car rental companies including Avis, Hertz, Europcar, Enterprise, and Sixt operate at Heathrow. Their offices are located near the airport and are accessible via free shuttle buses that run frequently from each terminal's arrivals level.
Heathrow has excellent public transport links. Options include:
- Heathrow Express: The fastest route to central London, reaching Paddington Station in just 15 minutes.
- Elizabeth Line: A fast service connecting the airport to key central London stations like Paddington, Bond Street, and Farringdon, as well as destinations in East London and Essex.
- London Underground (Tube): The most cost-effective rail option. The Piccadilly Line serves all terminals and takes approximately 50-60 minutes to reach central London.
- National Express Coaches: Provides long-distance bus services to hundreds of towns and cities across the UK, as well as other London airports.
Heathrow Airport is a major international airport in London, England. It is the largest of the six international airports serving Greater London. The airport facility is owned and operated by Heathrow Airport Holdings. In 2021, it was the seventh-busiest airport in the world by international passenger traffic and eighth-busiest in Europe by total passenger traffic.
Heathrow was founded as a small airfield in 1929 but was developed into a much larger airport after World War II. The airport lies 14 miles west of Central London on a site that covers 12.27 square kilometres. It was gradually expanded over seventy-five years and now has two parallel east–west runways, four operational passenger terminals and one cargo terminal. The airport is the primary hub for both British Airways and Virgin Atlantic.

Now that I see a satellite picture of Heathrow I see just how easy it would be to add a third runway the other side of the Bath Road. Do th British want to keep a place in the Top Ten of European flight centers or not? Get on with it Brits!
The Tube connections are really handy for getting out and into the heart of the city. Very efficient.
One of the great airports in the world
Heathrow will become better once Scotland gains its independence
The pratt who said now he has seen the Satellite view of Heathrow realize that a whole village will be demolished and a cemetery with all my family and friends in will be ripped up .
Modern airports provide airside trolleys, which fit inside toilet cubicles for security. Heathrow is too mean. This is an important facility for mothers carrying necessities for small children and for elderly passengers who find the trolleys convenient to lean on, while wheeling their cabin luggage and duty free purchases. I have heard LHR staff comment that they are fed up with collecting and stacking the trolleys. Apparently this is not a problem for staff at Amsterdam, Zurich and other modern, customer friendly airports.
Reply to @ELICE: en mi experiencia, el Ăşnica problema serio con Heathrow es la espera larga en las aduanas. En otros aspectos, me parece un buen aeropuerto, y es fácil llegar al centro de Londres desde allĂ.
Como pasajero, las veces que me ha tocado visitar este aeropuerto, siempre destaca un aire de profesionalidad y buen hacer. Sabemos que tiene un factor en contra que cuando nos pueden sorprender las inclemencias.
This is obviously an old photo (pre 17Jan) as you can clearly see the scars left by the undercarriage and engines of the BA38 on the grass area. It shows as a very bright green set of 'tracks'. Could google send their satellite over LHR again soon to see them please?
On Thursday 17 January 2008, British Airways flight 38, a Boeing 777 inbound from Beijing, landed short of the runway at Heathrow with its gear not fully deployed -- there's some indication that the plane had a power loss. There were only minor injuries, and the airport continued operations using its other runway. Wikipedia is already on top of the story:

In March 2008, Heathrow will be opening its new Terminal 5, with 112 stores and restaurants (designed to handle traffic at the 2012 Olympics). There's a virtual tour at the airport's web site:
