How easy is it to pick someone up from terminal 5 at heathrow airport?
I want to pick a friend up from the airport at T5, is there parking? and is it signposted? I want to meet them at the arrivals gates.
Heathrow is worse then Boston during the construction, or New york anytime.
At most airports its easier for a person coming in to get around the airport then a driver getting around. And with most airports there is one terminal that is the easiest. There are trains, or buses that take people from terminal to terminal, or parking lots. The best way is to park, and go to the baggage claim and meet your friend. Since 9/11, no one can go to the gate anymore unless they have a ticket. It may take a good hour but it is the easiest way.

Concorde gates and parking stands?
Can anyone please tell me which terminals, gates and parking stands were regularly used by Concorde at its principal airports, i.e. Heathrow, Charles de Gaulle, Kennedy International etc?
The reason I am asking is that I use MS Flight Simulator with a Concorde add-on and detailed sceneries for many airports. Being somewhat of a perfectionist, I want to make my simming as accurate as possible.
Any help would be appreciated. Remember there’s 10 points in it for somebody.
When I used to visit JFK in NYC, British Airways shared the same terminal as United Airlines which was Terminal 7. Now they are part of the One World Alliance so British Airways may have moved to Terminal 8 or 9 where the new American Airlines terminal is. But I wouldn’t be surprised if BA is still operating out of Terminal 7 since it is right next to American.
