⭐Your Virtual Arrival at LONDON HEATHROW AIRPORT, Terminal 2 (United)

I was inspired by this walk to put the "long march" from plane to passport control to music. View it here (only 3:20 min long): kzbin.info/www/bejne/onylYaCVrrybhbs

Thank you for posting this. It’s hard to find deboarding videos. They are helpful for someone that plans on traveling to a place. They’re not familiar with.

Glad it was helpful! -Daniel

Wow, that was a long frigg'n walk to baggage claim!

[@WheresMyMap]

Indeed.

[@dewimaria2143]

lmao . i just wanna say the same thing 😅 .

love the video! I’m flying back to the uk from korea in june and I can’t wait! I have autism and this will be my second time flying alone, so it’s comforting/useful to watch videos like this before I go, it helps me prepare myself. so excited to get home! :)

[@WheresMyMap]

Glad it was helpful! -Daniel

[@chezellis]

@@WheresMyMap We also have autism, so your video helps immensely. I only wish you had walked to the Hilton Garden Inn Terminal 2, but people tell me it's not hard to find.

[@Retiredtraveler1961]

Flown into terminal five Heathrow on British Airways many times. What I like about the Business Class is the arrivals lounge. After completing customs and immigration proceed to what we in America would call the second floor, which is really labeled the first floor above the ground floor. Existing the elevators & to your right is the arrivals lounge where you will find complementary showers, snacks, hot foot /drinks and a place to relax.

[@WheresMyMap]

Thanks for the tip!

[@MaulinAgrawal1217]

I know T3 and T5 well enough but this November will be my first time through T2. Going to be flying in on Air Canada.

[@gteodorof1162]

Thanks for video 🤗.

My pleasure. -WMM

[@lightningbuster]

Good video. Pretty fancy airport. I know obviously you don't want to put your personal info on youtube but I was kind of hoping to hear what kind of questions they ask at security and customs, so I can mentally prepare. I'll be landing there at the end of this month (sept 2024). Also your audio was starting to loop there at the end.

[@RobinAngel61]

nicely done!

[@meganledford6694]

Great video, thanks for posting! It's a great resource. I was wondering what camera/device you did your videoing with and how it's mounted or held? The quality is very good.

[@WheresMyMap]

Glad it was helpful! I used a GoPro 10, just held in my hand (to keep it low profile).

[@Ka-zh4py]

Hello, Thank you for the fun video! I have a question. I’m planning on taking the National Express Coach from terminal 2. Is it down there where it says “Buses”? (14:48 )

[@WheresMyMap]

Yes I believe so, though I did not walk to that area on this visit. The signage is pretty good so you should have no problem.

[@Ka-zh4py]

Thank you very much!!!

[@tony-q9]

hey! i’m taking the national express clash also? how long did it take you to get there?

[@mea3665]

Thank you first international flight next year. I thought Lugage pick up would be before Customs. Toilets will be first stop 😂😂😂

[@WheresMyMap]

On international travel, baggage claim is always after passport control (if nessary), and before Customs (Customs needs to check all your belongings, if necessary).

[@AomWasamon]

Hello, good video, but the way out took the bag really far, I watched until the end of the clip. but good detail😂😂

[@WheresMyMap]

Thanks for watching! -WMM

[@jevenperame3250]

I have a flight this month and Heathrow is one of my lay overs. I would like to ask some advice on how to get to terminal 3 from terminal 5? Your answer would be a great help. Thank you and God bless!

[@WheresMyMap]

It's a little confusing and non-intuitive. You can take the Heathrow Express train using a *free* transfer ticket (get it at a special machine at the T5 train station) to get to Terminal 3. Or alternatively, go outside and follow the purple signs to ‘Flight Connections’ and use the free dedicated Flight Connections buses to take you to your departure terminal. In any case, the transfers between legacy terminals at LHR are pretty jacked up, but the signage is good so follow that.

[@jevenperame3250]

@@WheresMyMap Thank you so much🥹❤️

[@craigschrock7959]

Seems to be a long way to go for baggage claim from plane, surely they can make a better way that’s faster

[@WheresMyMap]

One would think so ...

[@jessiebaker9313]

It takes a long time to unload the baggage from the plane. So they make you take a looooong walk to give the handlers time to do their job.

[@VioletTeager-cq2ff]

have you done a virtual tour for terminal 3? i'm flying back to england soon but i always get lost even though i've already flown a few times, this is the first time i'm flying by myself so i'm a bit nervous

[@vanjopenalosa1068]

Hi, is there a fee for baggage trolley? Appreciate your response. Thanks!

[@WheresMyMap]

Baggage trolleys are provided for your use free of charge in key areas around the terminal buildings. Arriving passengers will find plenty of trolleys in baggage reclaim, and these can be taken to the car park, bus station or rail station access points.

[@vanjopenalosa1068]

@WheresMyMap thank you so much for the info!😊

[@greensidemags]

How long from getting off the airplane to leaving the terminal ?

[@WheresMyMap]

20 - 30 min.

[@e.lisgotravel]

Hi! Your video was really helpful! How long was the whole journey from leaving the plane to getting out of the arrivals?

[@WheresMyMap]

Glad it helped! I didn't time it, but probably about 40 minutes. The big dependencies are how long the passport line is (not long when I was there), and how quick the baggage comes out (mine was waiting for me). -WMM

[@SreeDeviangelic]

I am on first solo visit. No idea about the queues😢.

[@中刘-j2r]

@@WheresMyMap This is also what I like to ask, about time. So it still took you around 40 mins even your eGate line was not long and baggage was there already! Thanks for the information.

[@WheresMyMap]

Just get into the line following the sign for which passport (UK, non-UK, EU, "all other passports", etc.)

[@WheresMyMap]

I had to stop and pee, you know.

[@shirellx5471]

When deboarding through a jetway how is arrivals and departures separated

[@WheresMyMap]

When you enter the building from the jetway, you immediately take the escalator up one level, above the level that contains the departure gates.

[@africawai3555]

Hi, i will visit london in april, my friend will pick me up at short stay parking area. I wonder is it easy to find short stay parking area after i am through the customs? And how long i have to walk ? Thanks in advance.

[@WheresMyMap]

Heathrow Short Stay Parking is a convenient and affordable option for travelers using Heathrow Airport. Here are the key details: What is Short Stay Parking? Location: Just a 2-minute walk from the terminals, Short Stay parking is ideal for meeting or dropping off passengers. It’s also a great choice for short trips or business meetings. Booking: You can pre-book Short Stay parking in advance for durations over one hour, up to two hours prior to your arrival (subject to availability). Convenience: The Short Stay car parks are located close to the terminal doors, with designated spots for Disabled and Parent & Child parking. Security: Regular security patrols and up-to-date technologies ensure passenger safety. Booking Options: You can either pre-book online using the “Get a parking quote” widget or simply turn up on the day1. Pricing for Heathrow Short Stay Parking (Effective from January 4, 2023): 0 - 29 minutes: £6.00 30 - 44 minutes: £9.50 45 - 59 minutes: £12.70 1 - 2 hours: £16.00 2 - 3 hours: £19.40 3 - 4 hours: £23.30 4 - 5 hours: £29.30 5 - 6 hours: £37.70 6 - 9 hours: £51.40 9 - 12 hours: £67.30 12 - 24 hours: £83.30 Each additional 24-hour period: £83.30 Overheight vehicle tariffs vary by terminal1. Picking Up Passengers: If you’re picking up passengers, Short Stay parking is one of the easiest options. Drive into the car park, take a ticket, and pay at one of the on-foot machines upon exit1. Electric Vehicle Charging: Unfortunately, Heathrow doesn’t currently provide EV charging facilities in the Short Stay car parks. If you’re driving an electric vehicle, make sure to charge it adequately before arriving at the airport1.

@@WheresMyMap thanks so so much !!!! It's really helpful with the information you provided. Definitely I won't get lost !!

[@german-cg1mq]

As a US citizen did you have to show your passport to an immigration officer or just through the digital scanner?

[@WheresMyMap]

My experience was to use the passport scanner, and if that didn't work (it didn't) then be redirected to talk to an officer. -WMM

[@german-cg1mq]

@@WheresMyMap great thank you for the feedback

[@yourdailylife2024]

How do I know if I need a stamp or not?

[@WheresMyMap]

It's not your decision - it's theirs. Just follow the signs according to what type of passport you have (UK EU, all passports, etc) and if you need a stamp, they will stamp it. If not, they won't.

[@yourdailylife2024]

@@WheresMyMap I have a German passport. But when are they going to see it ?? I mean if I go directly to the scanning thing nobody will see if I need a stamp or not . I don’t get it xD

[@WheresMyMap]

I'm finding that while traveling within Schengen countries, I rarely get a stamp. I'm a traveler just like you. If the issue concerns you, my recommendation is to check the website of the airport authority and ask them if needed.

yes, as with all airports.

Wow I love this video, its so helpful! 😍 I have a question... Do you know if the passport control (immigration), for brazilian tourists for example, is open 24 hrs on T2?

[@WheresMyMap]

Not sure about passport control hours - I'd check with Heathrow's website, but it seems to me that they'd be open to accommodate any international flights, otherwise imagine the confusion. -WMM

[@paullewis2413]

Heathrow does not normally have any arrivals between 23:00 and 0:430 the next morning. Passport control is always in operation after any arrivals.

Don’t catch the £25 fast train into London. Take the Underground, Piccadilly Line.

[@WheresMyMap]

Or I actually prefer the Elizabeth line. -WMM

[@danielspencer6174]

It better take elizabeth line crossrail 1 cheaper than Heathrow express.

[@Magic_beans_]

If you book far in advance, the Heathrow Express can be a pretty good deal, especially considering how modern and cushy it is. A month out it tends to be £15 each way, or three months out it can be £5. Of course it also matters where you’re going. The Express ends at Paddington, so if you’re staying anywhere other than west London you’ll need another train anyway.

[@jodytaylor5097]

I will be needing to find lifts. I can't use escalators. Sadly you didn't show where they are.

[@WheresMyMap]

The signage is good at LHR. Just look for the "Lifts to ..." signs.

[@rhysellis928]

Wow, Heathrow has infuriatingly disappointed me. Just like London-Stansted, Heathrow sends their passenger arrivals to one massive passport control gate. What is it with my country that has this stupid idea to make people suffer by dragging them through an unnecessary massive maze and queue with every other arriving passenger coming through the terminal? Its like herding cattle. Certainly feels like herding cattle. They do this at Stansted, but the queue their is usually far worse crammed with hundreds of people. If you arrive at a sensible airport, like Barcelona in Spain or Hanover in Germany, as soon as you disembark the plane and enter the terminal building, you immediately enter passport control. The only queue are those from the plane you've just disembarked - quicker, and gets the passport hassle over with sooner. The only good thing I can say about Heathrow T2 is it seems clean and well maintained.

[@WheresMyMap]

Yes, it is "the long march". At least it felt like that to me, so much so that I had to put it to music: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHbQe2N8f7JsqM0
