Expensive, but generally convenient and understandable. Such a purely functional airport, there is a subway to the city, a lot of shopping. The toilets are clean and the staff are moderately friendly. Some are even friendly, at the British self-check-in counters.
I often fly to this airport, so I navigate it very well. You can have a delicious meal in a cafe-restaurant; walk around and look at goods in famous boutiques; comfortable chairs in the waiting room, huge scoreboards with a schedule where everything is visible and understandable. You can take a train directly from the airport and get to the city center. I like our Sheremetyevo airport after renovation more than Heathrow airport in London. Sheremetyevo has a huge selection of restaurants, cafes for every taste and recreation areas.
Everything is changing, except for Heathrow. He's just growing up. Overloaded as always. But there is enough food and shops. I have something to occupy myself with. The service is good. The staff does everything clearly and quickly.
A large airport. And everything is kind of confusing. Self-check-in of luggage and printout of body pass. It's not clear why.... The only advantage is that you don't go through live customs when you fly to Europe. Only the machine checks.
It's a big, beautiful airport. The controls were quick. The only drawbacks are that it's expensive to get to Westminster and there are no direct flights from Russia.
The airport is huge, the staff is rude, they talk through their teeth, the information cards do not carry reliable information, and the transfer between terminals is very difficult. There are dirty places
A stylish large airport. The first in terms of passenger traffic in Europe and the 7th in the world. There are 5 terminals, one cargo terminal. Convenient communication between terminals is free of charge. There are many interesting souvenir shops - football paraphernalia, etc. A chic Duty Free zone, lots of cafes and pubs! Drinking Guinness on the road is a sacred thing! And the main feature of Heathrow is that planes don't fly at night! The most recent flight(overnight) This is Aeroflot for Moscow at 23-45. That's it! Until morning. It's funny to watch when everything starts to close at 22:00 and the lights go out)) For those who have ever flown away at night, it will be akin to a shock....Some people make round eyes with the look of "what kind of happened?" But this detail does not touch the advantages of the port!
The airport is the most disgusting: cramped and stupidly organized. An underground train runs between the 3 terminals, but only in one(!) direction, while arriving at terminal C, in order to get from the arrival zone to the departure zone of the same terminal, you need to take a train ride to terminal A, then run a considerable distance, go underground again and get to the departure zone of terminal C, which is where you actually arrived. There are minimum waiting areas, there are no budget expenses, there are no smoking areas at all, so smokers are provided with withdrawal syndrome.
It turns out that the airport does not work at night. We arrived at 23:30, it was necessary to go to the transit zone. We were asked to leave the airport, that is, go through passport control, and then decide for yourself where you will spend the night. I have not seen such rules in any of the airports before. So if you choose this airport as a connection, then make sure that it is daytime.
A convenient airport building. There are a lot of pointers, signs and inscriptions help to navigate, they are clear and simple.
The staff is friendly and ready to help at any time. You pass the control quickly and without difficulties.
Queues are only for boarding, but they go quickly and are not tedious.
You won't be able to figure out geography the first time. The airport is huge, it is quite difficult to drive up by car, park in the right place and find the necessary entrance / exit.
When you fly to London, make sure that there are no liquids and creams in your hand luggage. I said goodbye to all the contents on my last trip.From toothpaste to creams, no more than 50 ml too. Everything that doesn't fit in a tiny plastic bag is a Vesta urn. Or they can send it to you at any address except Russia . And you will pay for it out of your own pocket . From 30 pounds.... If to London.... They behave rudely ... so it 's better to do everything so that you don 't have to communicate with them )
The airport shouldn't be that big. There are a lot of people, cars, planes. Queues are everywhere. And you realize that the slightest malfunction can lead to collapse.
We were waiting for our flight in the Dubai Airlines lounge - excellent staff-sincere, polite.We especially liked Nina (unfortunately, I didn't recognize her last name).Very tasty, clean!
A good, large airport, with more or less understandable infrastructure, but there are better, simpler and cheaper. Sometimes you go through the pre-flight safety procedures for a long time.
Loaded airport. A huge number of people.
Despite this, I passed passport control in 30 minutes, which is super fast for such an airport.
Free WiFi (not for an hour like in Satbul)
A large comfortable hub.
An excellent airport, on the level of London, but the biggest plus is the direct subway line to Paddington. Elizabeth Line, 12.2 pounds, 25 minutes and you're already on Paddington)
There are always queues at passport control, here you will see firsthand the whole blue-purple Africa, Asia and India.Educational pastime...Another reduction in airport staff resulted in both a shortage and their quality.
Heathrow is a fairly convenient and well-built airport. Being in London for the first time, I found everything there very quickly. There are clear signs everywhere. In general, as it should be at the airport.
A large airport. The British are very friendly and friendly, they make conversational contact. I didn't expect this. Well done. I was only at the airport, I think they are the same behind him.
I was in Bergenheim before, 300 km from England, too, normal Russians treat us as if with respect. English is certainly not the language that we were taught at school, as if they were barking with conversation. And so good people, I had a different opinion of them before.)
I flew from Russia to the children, I liked the flight, everything went well, the first time abroad was scary, but it turned out that everything was in vain
It is not very comfortable, there are always a lot of people, control and inspection are always queues. It is not a convenient airport , the staff is almost all Hindus or other strays .
this airport has one of the most meticulous customs inspections in the world, the staff is very slow and the airport itself is not very conveniently made because the distance between the terminals is huge
A normal airport, which differs little from its counterparts in the capitals. The only thing that bothered me was that they took me out of the general mass of passengers and checked my passport for a very long time, without explaining anything....
Queues for security checks can be long. Sometimes it takes a long time to walk through the tunnel to the exit. And it's so good and convenient for shopping.
Huge, keep that in mind. That's why passengers arrive on the plane in 3 hours - to get to the ramp INSIDE the airport😂😂
There is a Dutik, there is a cafe. Xs, I was there 3 years ago, if anything
