      Airline connections - Heathrow

      Jump to last reply Flag this topic

      We have booked ourselves with a two hour connection window out of Heathrow, and as soon as we did so began to get nervous. We will arrive at noon on Virgin Atlantic, and depart two hours and 10 minutes later on BA. I believe we arrive at Term 2 and depart out of Term 5. We booked these legs separately ourselves (using miles on Virgin) so we will need to claim and re-check our bags (I'm assuming.) PROVIDING everything goes well, with no arrival delays, and I know that is a generous provision, will we be able to make that connection with checked bags? We've strongly considered the carry-on only option, but not sure how we can do that for a three-week trip. What do you all think about the connection? We've never flown into LHR before. Thanks for your help.
