Worth knowing
From the airport, Monday to Saturday. On Sundays the first is 06:55 and the last about 23:05. Late on Friday and Saturday nights the connections thin out and the wait at Green Park grows.
Terminals 2 and 3 are the first Heathrow station on the way in, Terminal 5 is further on, and not every train serves Terminal 4.
Tap in at the DLR station and tap out at Heathrow, or you may be charged a maximum fare.
