London Heathrow Airport transfer from Terminal 4 to Terminal 2,3 Central Bus Station

[@khaledaldeini2408]

This video is very helpful for passengers arriving at Terminal 4 and wants to move to Terminal 2 & 3 or Central bus station.

[@DenzonCHannel]

Thanks Khaled. Don't forget to get free train transfer ticket. Please see 3:17.

[@ag4871]

One tip. Check to see if your bus stops at Hatton Cross. If so, take the underground there from T4 or T5 and change onto the bus. It's a MUCH easier change: Up the stairs, through the ticket gates, door on the left and you're there. Get on the train towards the front. Coaches like the ones in this video are unlikely to but normal London (TfL) red buses, including Superloop, often do. Hatton Cross is in the Heathrow Campus so you'll only be charged for the underground trip if you buy a paper ticket, other types of payment are free.

Very useful thank you

When you see open ticket barriers, you must still pass the ticket/card.

[@DenzonCHannel]

No need. If a staff is present, show him the ticket and leave but keep the ticket as you need it at the exit.

If I'm staying at a hotel in Terminal 4 the night before my flight from Heathrow Terminal 2, what are my options to get to T2 the next morning? Is it only free if I'm connecting from another flight on the same day? Can I walk between 4 and 2?

@@TheJm129 I would not advice you to walk but you can check the google maps for the duration. Subway is the shortcut because it is traversing below the airport. If you will walk, you need to go around the airport which may take some time.

[@DenzonCHannel]

Hi, the central bus station is located at terminal 2. Check your plane ticket which terminal are you going to land. If not terminal 2 then you need to go to the train platform that will bring you to terminal 2. You have plenty of time, so no need to rush. Follow the signage closely and ask the airport staff for direction if you are not sure. If you are also landing at terminal 4, then just follow this video to reach the central bus station. Good luck to your travel.

Terminal 2. Although T2 and T3 are just adjacent to each other. Only one train stop and a few minutes walk. You can see it in the video (8:00). Yeah you can use the trolleys subject to its availability.

[@brianvassallomusic]

Hello, I have seen you very helpful video. I see that you took the underground train first. But is this enough or one has to take the bus as well afterwards to reach Terminal 3. I thought once you take the underground train, it will take you to terminal 3, no bus needed. I will appreciate your help as I am confused . Thanks - Brian

[@DenzonCHannel]

Hi! In my video we transfer from terminal 4 to terminal 2,3 via underground train (landside transfer). That route can be done only if you have UK visa. In our case, we went to T2,T3 to reach the central bus station because we are travelling to Bath UK. But if you are on a connecting flight and you need to transfer terminal from T4 to T3 without UK visa, you need to ride the terminal transfer bus only. That is called air side transfer and it does not need UK immigration process. Just follow the signages and you'll be fine. You can ask the ground staff also for guidance.

[@brianvassallomusic]

@@DenzonCHannel Thank you for your precious help, as until now I was under the impression of taking the underground.But that is only to UK Visa holders as I understood . Final question please, To ride the bus there is a charge for the ticket ? Much thanks again in advance - brian

Must have seen this video 5 times already, exactly what I have been searching for. Quick queries: 1. Approx how much time it takes to clear immigration in terminal 4 and reach the central bus station? 2. From terminal 4, till what point can we carry the trollies? Can we take them till train platform?

[@DenzonCHannel]

Hi Ramit, It may vary from 1 to 2 hours, depending on the volume of arrival to clear the immigration. 30 minutes at least for the train. You can use the trolleys until you reach a barrier that it cannot go thru. No, you cannot use it up to the train platform. Better to use luggage with wheels. Good luck and be safe.

[@lilianaamin4868]

Thank you. Can I pay the trollie with credit card and how much is it.

Use of trolley is free

[@BMeghaa]

Do you do immigration first and then go ahead to terminal 2? Also how to know in which terminal mega bus stands t3 or t2? And is train the only way to travel from t4 to t2,3?

[@DenzonCHannel]

* Do you do immigration first and then go ahead to terminal 2? If you are going inside UK, YES. If you have a connecting flight only and need to transfer terminal, NO. *Also how to know in which terminal mega bus stands t3 or t2? T2 and T3 are just adjacent to each other and the Central bus station is at the same area. If you are travelling inside UK by bus, go to central bus station. Same like what we did in this video. You can check it also in your bus ticket. *And is train the only way to travel from t4 to t2,3? There might be other option but the train is the best and fastest. We never tried any except by train.

Yes it is enough for visit visa if not peak season but you have to move fast. If you are entering UK, immigration process may take more time depending on the season. Train transfer arrive every 30 minutes. But if you are a first timer in Student visa, immigration process alone sometimes takes 2 hours. If still possible, add more time allowance to be safe. Last time we were there, we allotted 4 hours. My immigration process took almost 1 hour only but my son being student has a different queue which took 2 hours. Good luck to your travel.
