    Mixed review for Heathrow Airport - Spring 2019 experience EWR-London-BLR round trip business class - I was taking my flight from London to EWR BA business class - Got the priority boarding as I walked down the stair to start walking towards the aerobridge the security staff was excited to pull me based on ethnicity He told I was required to go through additional security -> They did a pat down head to toe for me which was shocking (why pull me after I am already gone through two levels of security screening) -> They passed my backpack bag in the x-ray machine, opened all possible zips in the backpack, smeared some thing and put in some machine like litmus test BTW my backpack small size had travel document and a Sony ten year old pocket camera. Even though they allow handbag and another carry one for business class I always travel light -> this cherry picked screening took over 20 minutes! what I gained from priority boarding was eaten up in this process. We all love to abide laws and appreciate the effort taken to fly us safe but in all the European airports (Heathrow included) brown skin gets a downgraded treatment - Fall 2019 experience JFK->London->Doha->BLR round trip Business Class - Terminal bus connection instruction is not clear since I was traveling alone and in Business class was fortunate to gain priority to deplane and run to the bus - Security staff in the connecting airport was extremely rude and inefficient (they point finger yell! at customers, me included, many passengers include me made should to rate bad experience, not sure if someone really reviews the ratings) Not worth writing the horrifying experience since 1995 when I have flow through Heathrow few times in economy class

    Flying into LHR from SFO arriving Gate B36 Terminal 2 at 14:10 (United). I will have checked in luggage. Flying out of LHR to RAK (Royal Air Maroc) same day from Terminal 4. Flight departs 17:10, and will need to check in luggage. Does anyone know if the 3 hrs I have is enough time to deplane, collect luggage, customs, shuttle, check in at Terminal 4, security, and be at my gate? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    pamala Gribben You can only use the Flight Connections process if your bags are checked through to your final destination (do not say LHR in big letters on tag). In this case, your bags will go right through to your next flight. Otherwise, you will need to enter the UK, claim your bags, go through customs, and check in as a normal departing passenger.

    Really need to lose having to go through security again. Makes zero sense. If pax go through security to get on the plane at the originating airport, fly, get on the transfer bus at say T3, go to T5, go through border control and have zero contact with anything or anyone who hasn’t been through security the whole way, why the extra 30 mins + going through security again just to get into T5 departures? If the same person decides “you know what I’ve been on a 10 hour flight and need some fresh air at T3 and goes through border control and has a wander and makes their own way to T5 - yes - they have to go through security again. If they’re airside the whole way though - why?

    @@mstrmren I think this can be mitigated by One Stop Security Agreements the UK can sign to give a waiver to certain countries like US, Canada, EU, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, etc. This can help generate reciprocity between countries to reduce red tape in the traveling experiences, while making sure that aviation security is a paramount priority. The US has similar agreements with other European countries, for example, which is why places like Schiphol, Frankfurt, Zurich, Munich, Paris, etc. are a bit easier when arriving from America (though passport control may be needed depending on location).
