Rail disruption - 30 September & 1, 4, 6 October 2023

Due to planned engineering works and industrial action, there will be disruption to rail and London Underground services between Heathrow and Central London between Saturday 30 September and Friday 6 October 2023.

 

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.

As the UK government’s travel corridors now allow for more summer holiday travel, we have been busy making sure you can get to Heathrow as safely as possible.

Just like normal, there are a variety of ways to get to the airport, whether travelling from the surrounding area or further afield and we have worked alongside travel providers to give passengers peace of mind to return.

Our new video explains how to use different modes of transport around the airport:

Extra guidance for transport at Heathrow

Some of the measures in place across transport links include:

  • Regular cleaning of all touch points in stations including tickets machines, ticket barriers and lift call points; as well as all Long Stay transfer buses
  • Face coverings are mandatory on public transport in England, including Heathrow Express trains, the Piccadilly line, taxis and buses/coaches, so do please remember to bring one with you
  • Keeping a safe distance from others, even if that means moving to another carriage. You will see signage as a reminder, at stations and in terminals
  • Hand sanitizer is available for everyone to use at more than 600 locations throughout Heathrow stations and terminals
Fly Safe Pit Stops

 

To ensure the most contact-free experience, we recommend booking online or using contactless payment where possible.

The Heathrow Express, which is now running every 30 minutes between London Paddington and Terminals 2 and 5, can be booked via the app; and for those driving to the airport, online booking is available at Heathrow.com, allowing for automatic recognition of your vehicle number plate at the car park.

We have consolidated flights into Terminals 2 and 5. Short stay car parks at both terminals remain open and offer the closest parking to each terminal. Terminal 2/3 Long Stay is open with a free Heathrow Express transfer onwards to T5 where necessary, until the 1st August when Terminal 5 Long Stay will re-open. Buses and coaches are still operating from the Central Bus Station at Terminal 2.

We appreciate there may be instances where travel has to be cancelled so rest assured that the Official Heathrow Parking flexible cancellation policy allows cancellations up to two hours before your booking.

However you choose to reach us, we advise passengers to arrive no more than two hours before a short-haul flight or three hours for long-haul, to reduce congestion in and around the terminals.

We look forward to seeing you again.
