Once in the public area of the arrivals hall, WH Smith and Boots Chemist will be on your right whilst if you are in need of refreshment you’ll need to head left to the end of the hall to find M & S Food as well as Caffe Nero. If you need any information about the terminal or indeed any information about London and the UK, all you need will be found in the information circle next to the Excess Baggage Company.
Those who aren’t in a hurry can use the facilities of the Arrivals Lounge or for those with a little more cash, the Plaza Premium Lounge may be more salubrious. Don’t forget that from the moment you’re in the terminal, you can access free Wi-Fi at the network name _Heathrow Wi-Fi.
To leave the airport, take the lift or escalator down to the ground floor level. Car hire isn’t in the terminal, instead you’ll need to take a shuttle bus to the agents’ offices. To the right in the second row of bus stops you’ll find the bus for on airport car hire – this includes rentals from Avis, Budget, Europcar, National, Alamo, Enterprise and Hertz. For car hire off site, go to the middle of the last row of bus lanes and get the bus for Dollar, Thrifty and Sixt rentals.
