You access Terminal 4 via the second level where you’ll find check in desks and a walk through to departures. For those wanting to do their last bit of UK shopping, the duty free mall is well-stocked with a wide range of shops, eateries and other facilities.
If you’re an arriving passenger, you’ll enter the terminal on the ground floor and after passing through security and passport control, you’ll end up in the baggage reclaim area. There, you’ll need to watch the information screens for which of the ten carousels your luggage will arrive on. Once you’ve collected your belongings, head to the centre of the arrivals hall for the passage through customs and out into the public part of the hall. As in all Heathrow’s terminals, you’ll be shepherded through the World Duty Free store which straddles your exit. There, you can buy last minute cut price gifts, alcohol, tobacco and perfumes, saving you having to carry it with you from your departure airport.
Once through the shopping temptations, you’ll find yourself in a broad public area. Tourist Information and a hotel booking service can be found in the booths to your left, near the ticket counter and departure points for the Heathrow Express.
Heading back towards the two exits you’ll pass WH Smith where you can catch up on the latest news and magazines as well as grabbing pre-wrapped snacks and drinks for your onward journey. Currency exchange bureaux are located right next to the exits whilst if you’re collecting car hire, the desks will be ahead of you now, near the exit to the underground.
If you’re hungry or just in need of light refreshment, The Windsor Castle is a JD Wetherspoon pub and there’s also a Costa Coffee outlet.
Once you’ve completed the car hire formalities, you’ll be taken outside to a courtesy bus for the short distance to the collection point for your vehicle. This only applies to customers whose car is provided by Avis, Budget, National, Europcar, Enterprise and Hertz. If you’re collecting a car from a Dollar, Thrifty or a Sixt agent at the airport, you’ll have a slightly longer courtesy bus trip off the airport site and the bus for these can be accessed near the short stay car park entrance.
For those arriving at Terminal 4, getting into London or further afield is a little more difficult because of the terminal’s remote location. For that reason, Heathrow Terminal 4 car hire is the sensible option for those who want a quick and easy exit from the airport.
