    Plaza Premium Lounge airside (down the escalator to your left, and then turn right past duty free). Calm, relaxing, good food and charging points. Today’s breakfast pictured. Open 0500. Loos inside.

    Majesty Queen Elizabeth II took the opportunity of personally opening the new Terminal 2 at Heathrow Airport. Its design, with its open, airy atmosphere, is the work of renowned architect Luis Vidal.

    Local unlimited mobile data plan. Plenty of £1 SIM cards @ WH Smith as u exit Customs. For unlimited data, I was recommended THREE. For £25, activate all-u-can-eat data add-on (30 days)

    Flying Star Alliance has gotten even better! At LHR it is the most efficient choice thanks to the move to brand new T2, saving busy travellers as much as 15 minutes compared to T3. Falling in love!

    Get dufry digital card and get at least 5% off in World Duty Free. Extensive perfume selection in store. Remember to insist on liquid purchases being security bagged if you have a transfer en route.

    Reminiscent of T5, a welcome upgrade for all Star Alliance member airlines that shall all depart from here by the end of 2014. Security fast track is on the right of the gates entry point.

    Lots of shops and restaurants...like a mini T5! Make sure you do your VAT refund paperwork before coming to the airport so you can skip the long que before security and do it on the other side 😄🇬🇧

    They have 2 prayers area ...one near gate A22 and another near B35. They have RIMOWA luggage bag too at the CASE😊 The security at the check in area is very professional and friendly at the same time

    It's a modern & airy terminal with awesome runway views. United will have sole use of T2 and T2B from June until the rest of the Star Alliance members (21 others) & Little Red join in September. ✈️🌍

    Claiming VAT refunds. As you face the checkin counters, it's all the way on the extreme left, after counter A19. It's obscure, so ask around if you have to. Expect to spend about 10-15mins queuing up

    Incredibly fast e-border gates and luggage to carousel speed. Well done! (1828 landed, slight delay getting free air bridge .. only 1912 and eating my main at Plaza Premium arrivals after customs).

    Be prepared for a very long walk to customs from the gate. Let’s just say you’ll get your steps in today.

    The best airport terminal with a great Canadian airlines lounge. Prefer Canadian over Singapore and united airlines if you want a peaceful and quite lounge but for food go to Singapore lounge.

    Leave plenty of time to get to the departure gate as it is an outrageous distance from the lounge are. This just adds to the stressful situation sometimes when flying.

    Airport is nice and and clean. VAT refund is a joke, it’s fees on top of fees and if you get back in your local currency it’s another fees. Then fees again if you don’t want to queue up!

    Get to T2 in plenty of time for departure. The check-in area is a mess with no crowd control. You will be walking to your gate for more than half an hour to 45 mins at a fast pace.

    There is very little near the B gates. Unless you are going to one of the lounges, you're best staying by A with all the shops and restaurants.

    Bag drop even at 0400 is pretty chaotic and busy, though staff friendly. After security is an oasis of calm at 0500. Travelex Currency Desk just after security (order on line 4+ hours for best rates).

    As a Star Alliance Gold Member, I like this terminal. However, in summer rush, it turns into a zoo.

    Leave 20mins to walk from your tube/Heathrow express to the terminal check I'm desks if you skip the elevators. It takes faster to get to Heathrow from Paddington..who designs these God only knows.

    If you need to refund your Oyster Card, you'll find that in terminal 3. The currency is not far from there as well.

    Probably my favourite terminal at Heathrow. Plenty of eating options but some a tad pricey. Long walks to the remote gates, though.

    Don't forget that oversize baggage comes to other carousels. There's a sign on the regular carousel saying where else to look.

    Economy class passengers need to check in, print luggage tag and boarding pass using self check in machine, then proceed to baggage drop. Efficient but lots of people were confused causing long queue

    It’s not a complicated airport, everywhere is super clean, nice and modern bye the way before baggage drop, you are printing your own baggage label which means you don’t have to wait front the desks

    Quieter terminal & fewer shops that T5 or T3. Shops & restaurants by A gates. Not much by B gates so be warned.
