Heathrow-->Knightsbridge-->Heathrow
Hi everyone :D I have a stopover in Heathrow and would like to meet a friend at Knightsbridge. My flight arrives at 1pm London time and the connecting flight takes off at 6pm. So I have 5 h for this lunch-excursion :beer: what do you think, is it reasonable ? or do I risk to miss the flight :scared:

Cause if I'm not mistaken, you don't go through UK Customes and Imigration if you are ariving and then leavig for a different country, so you wouldn't be allowed to leave the airport. Anyone else??
here's my schedule: from Munich 11:55 at Heathrow 13:00 from Heathrow 18:05 at NYC/JFK 20:45 why I shouldn't be allowed to go through the Passportcontrol an to leave the airport ? :eek: (I don't need a visa for the UK) |

Let your mate come and meet you at Heathrow instead if he/she doesn't have a flight to miss ... |
