Anyone familiar with or recommend a good meet & greet for LHR?

Not traveling with guns, but will be arriving from the US with 2 little ones and, after a long flight, hope to make arrival as effortless as humanly possible.

Thanks in advance,
WH

It’s a fairly easy airport. Just follow the signs for transit or arrival. Business you can use Fast Track or you can purchase Fast Track.

If you feel you really require assistance, your airline can provide this service for a minimal charge.

Thanks gents, I think Fast Track will be the ticket.

Much appreciated.

Meet and greet does a much better job.

Any particular service company you would recommend Saeed over the others?

Check with your travel agent.

They would know.

Last time I was at Heathrow traveling with BA FIRST CLASS I thought I was in some third world airport!

Never again!

.

Saeed, You actually flew BA !!!! I am shocked

.

Had no choice really because Canada does not allow Emirates to fly to Vancouver!

Second time around I flew Emirates to the east coast then Air Canada Business!

So much better than BLOODY AWFUL airlines First!

And avoid Heathrow

You know you are failing as a first world country and airline when you need third world-type meet and greet servicers to assist travelers arriving at or transiting your capital city.

Next year marks 250 years since we threw off the British yoke.

Thanks be to God.

Guys,

Heathrow during the pandemic was a nightmare. My understanding now is it is back to pre pandemic conditions. If that is true it's pretty easy as I went thru Hearthrow a number times pre pandemic and even with guns it was not an issue.

Breezed through there a couple of weeks ago. USA passports you go straight through the automatic passport gates. Took about 2 minutes from entering the immigration hall to getting out into the bag collection. Dubai citizens don't have that privilege so have a long wait in line. No wonder Saeed hates it, although I suspect it is a result of being sent off to boarding school in England which wouldn't have been much fun. My apologies, Saeed if I am incorrect in my assumption,

As said Heathrow is a horrible airport - I always avoid if at all possible. Its just too big, too old and extended and enlarged many times. Having said that you should have no major issues if you follow the signs. Transport links are in truth pretty good - taxi will probably be the slowest way to get where you are going. The only likely holds will be immigration - and meet and greet will not help you there!

Thanks everyone for the guidance and for sharing your experiences. Sounds like we should be good to go, and will look for the Fast Track lanes.

We arrived in Montreal, Canada.

We were kept in the plane for about 20 minutes, because the immigration hall was full.

Once out, we were met by our VIP MEET AND GREET rep.

Walked us through a special immigration line, which got us through in 2 minutes.

The rest of the hall was packed like sardines!

Glad we had this arranged in advance!

Aha!

Meet & Greet for someone holding VIP status makes a whale of a difference.

It is available to anyone.

All you need is book it and pay for it.

We book meet and greet at Dubai airport for all our visitors.

Makes life so much easier.
