Prepare for your airport stay

Build a calmer journey around terminal times, onward transport and an unusual overnight stay aboard a converted jumbo jet.

Before you travel

Keep the practical details together

Airport journeys involve several moving parts. Confirm your terminal, transport arrangements and flight information using official travel documents before setting out.

Terminal details

Check the terminal shown on your current airline documents and allow time for airport procedures.

Onward transport

Choose a suitable transfer method in advance and leave a margin for traffic or service changes.

Travel timing

Use the latest guidance from your airline and transport operator when deciding when to depart.
