If you check into the Terminals 1,2 or 3 for an international flight go trough security at Zone K. Cue is almost always better than others. It's tucked away to the right of the terminal!
Don't use the coke vending machines. They reject your coins and then keep 20-30 p when you press for coins back. Try a few machines and soon you don't have enough coins to try again. Like a casino.
I don't get all the negative comments about security and check in here! I fly BA all the time and must spend a max 10 mins total queuing! The longest queue is at Costa coffee!
Best airport ever! Came 20 mins before my flight departed - security, finding the gate in less than 5 mins, plus VERY helpful staff. Thank you Heathrow!
Rather amazing how much pointless diversion is required to get from one place to another in this terminal, not to forget the ineptitude of at least one of the screeners.
1 coffee shop, whsmith and a pub in domestics true but you are able to access Harrods and WDF in main terminal before you go through to there, Michael. Sounds like you prob went through staff search

T1 is the red-headed step child of Heathrow, guess Star Alliance has little influence on the poor terminal layout and conditions. Try Est Caffe for a little r&r, slow but good.
It takes at least 2.5 hours to get to gates for Ireland, with 3 security checks and a great distance to travel. Also, no hot beverages allowed on the Aer Lingua flight. So don't bother with a coffee.
Make sure to have a long, long, long time for your connecting flight. This place is huge and will drive you crazy. One hour is not enough to make a connecting flight.
Готовьтесь к серьезному досмотру. У меня все карманы проверили на взрыв. Вещества. Ничего не нашли, отпустили дальше. Зато терминал очень приличный. Вот такой завтрак ;)
If you are in heathrow today and have been in the queue outside for hours... Spend the nine pounds and hire a porter... They'll get you the check in counter in under 5 minutes
As usual the e-passport machines aren't working, neither are the iris scanning ones. I'm sure it's a plot to make you wait in line to get back into your own country. Claiming asylum is quicker.
It's a good 5-10 minute walk from some of the arrival gates, mostly without moving walkways (or toilets, I think) If you need assistance do arrange it!
Why are United gates like a million miles from security... Ridiculous! Guess they are getting ready for Star Alliance move to Terminal 2 when it's rebuilt!
