London Heathrow

Book 2-4 weeks ahead for the best prices — last-minute Heathrow parking can cost 3x more than pre-booked rates.

Check which terminal your airline uses before booking. T5 is exclusively British Airways, while T2 is the Star Alliance hub.

If you have an early morning flight, consider a hotel + parking package — Premier Inn T5 includes up to 15 days parking.

Heathrow Express parking at T5 Business car park includes fast-track entry — worth it for frequent flyers.

EV charging is available at all official Heathrow car parks and several off-site providers including APH.

Early morning flights from London Heathrow (before 8am) are the number one reason to book an airport hotel. Stay the night before and walk to the terminal refreshed instead of a 3am alarm.

Hotel + parking packages at London Heathrow are almost always cheaper than booking the room and parking separately. The package price includes both for your entire trip.

Most London Heathrow airport hotels offer free shuttle transfers running every 15-20 minutes from 4am. Check times when booking for early flights.

Pre-booking a lounge at London Heathrow is significantly cheaper than walking in. Walk-in rates are typically £10-15 more per person, and availability isn't guaranteed during peak times.

Arrive at the lounge at least 2 hours before your flight to make the most of it. Most lounges ask you to leave 30 minutes before departure.

All bookable London Heathrow lounges are airside (after security) so you can relax without worrying about gate calls — flight screens are displayed throughout.

Pre-booking a transfer from London Heathrow is almost always cheaper than hailing a taxi at the airport rank. Airport taxis charge premium rates with surge pricing at peak hours.

All our London Heathrow transfer providers offer flight tracking — if your flight is delayed, your driver waits at no extra charge.

For groups of 4+, a private minibus from London Heathrow works out cheaper per person than individual taxis and is far more convenient with luggage.
