LHR T5 - T3 connection time
Discussion
The MAN - LAX flights I'm looking at booking include a connection time of 90 minutes which is the minimum advised between these terminals. We're not too bothered about being rushed to make our way to T3 so I guess it's enough time, but I thought it was worth checking if it's sensible?
It's a sensible time (as long as you're not flying on a real peak day) but talk to check in at MAN and the MAN - LHR crew to make sure they know you're a transferring self loading freight passenger with a short transfer time. The minimum connect time at Heathrow is 45 minutes but that sees you being frog marched through the terminals by BA crew. When you disembark at LHR follow the purple signage, not yellow for arrivals.
Also, and apologies if you know this already, but don't put anything in your hold baggage you need for the first two days. Even though it's a 1.5% chance your bags are most likely to go AWOL when you transfer.
