UNDERGROUND HEATHROW STATIONS

Passengers will find Underground stations at Terminal 4, Terminal 5 and one for Terminal 2 and 3. The station in Terminal 2 and 3 is between terminals, so it is required a short walk to each of them via a pedestrian walkaway.

Times depend of the Terminal too, so it is suggested to check always the timetable here.
