OH, how I wish we had more time in London!!!
My first time at this airport, and wow, very impressed with the place. Awesome shopping, lots of variety, and the signage, oh the signage -- unlike some terminals in Toronto, where even the natives are lost upon international arrival home, Heathrow is almost idiot-proof: We exited our plane in great haste from one terminal to make a connecting flight to YYZ departing from another terminal, and were funnelled visually with colour (purple) and large, simple text and numbers to where we needed to go (we had 53 minutes to get from the seats in our aircraft which had landed at Terminal 1, to Terminal 3, including another security check, and into the connecting flight. )
And it was EASY!
Although the gate was closing as we arrived, we managed so squeeze on with 9 minutes to spare before take-off (darn, I coulda’ gone shopping!!!)
