Over this period, there will be disruption to Heathrow Express and Piccadilly line services. The Elizabeth line will be operating as normal, and inter-terminal transfer services between all terminals will also be completed by these services.

 

Passengers should plan their journeys before travelling, and allow for additional time where necessary as services will be busier than normal.

ULEZ expansion - 29 August 2023

London's Ultra Low Emission Zone, or ULEZ, is expanding to encompass all of Greater London, including Heathrow Airport, from the 29 August 2023.

 

The initiative, implemented by Transport for London (TfL), is aimed at reducing air pollution in London, therefore all vehicles entering the airport must meet certain emissions standards in order to avoid paying a daily charge.

 

The daily charge for non-compliant vehicles is £12.50 for most vehicles, including cars, vans, and motorcycles.

 

The charge will be in addition to any other fees or charges associated with entering the airport. The charge only applies when a vehicle is driven within the ULEZ zone, and does not apply to stationary vehicles including when cars are parked at Heathrow.

 

Please note, if you have booked Meet & Greet or Valet Parking with a non-compliant vehicle, and have selected a different exit terminal to your entry terminal, you will be liable for payment of a ULEZ charge to transfer your vehicle to another terminal.

Operational update - February 2022

Heathrow
The following provides an update on the number of flight movements we expect to see at Heathrow during February.

Last month we outlined how we expected between 560-900 flight movements a day during January, with larger numbers travelling post-Christmas before demand dropped off as the month progressed. The lowest daily number of flights in the month was 571 (26 January) and the highest was 883 (3 January), comfortably within our predicted range.

Our forecast range for February is much the same with between 570-960 flight movements a day. Early February is typically very quiet which is driving the lower end of the range. Later in the month flight numbers are expected to rise for half term, with current schedules indicating more activity than the Christmas period as Omicron cases continue to ease and restrictions are lifted. Flights during half term tend to be more concentrated around the weekend which is driving the upper end of the range.
