Arriving on a Lufthansa flight
For Lufthansa arrivals, the driver watches the live flight status and adjusts to delays. Clear passport control, collect your luggage and head to the agreed meeting point. With meet and greet.
Connecting with Star Alliance partners
Lufthansa is a member of Star Alliance. At Heathrow, airlines from the same alliance are often grouped in the same terminal, which can make connections easier. Don’t assume it for your onward flight, though: check the terminal for each leg on your booking, and allow for a terminal change if one is needed.
