Pickup from your door
Book the pickup for about 3 hours before a short-haul departure (an hour more for long-haul). With a 45-minute drive from Euston, that leaves roughly 2 hours 15 minutes at Heathrow for check-in, bag drop and security in normal traffic. The driver comes to your door, loads the luggage and brings free child seats if you ask for them. Heathrow has four terminals: 2, 3, 4 and 5. Terminals 2 and 3 share the central area, while 4 and 5 sit on their own, so check that the terminal on your booking matches your ticket.
Arriving back
Flying back into Heathrow? Your driver tracks the flight and waits in the arrivals hall of your terminal with your name on a sign. The first 60 minutes after landing are free and parking is already in the price, so a long passport queue costs you nothing. Book "Return" on the form to reserve both journeys at once with a discount on the way home to Euston.
