About Terminal 2
Most Star Alliance airlines at Heathrow operate from Terminal 2, which makes connections between partner airlines simpler. A pre-booked car takes you straight to the Terminal 2 departures area. For pickup points, layout and drop-off details, see our Heathrow Terminal 2 taxi guide, or the Heathrow terminal map.
Getting to SWISS at Heathrow by taxi
- Book with your flight number: it links your transfer to the right terminal.
- Work back from SWISS’s check-in advice, then add the drive time and some margin for traffic.
- Mention bulky items such as pushchairs, golf bags or skis, which change the vehicle you need.
- Know the drop-off charge. Heathrow charges for forecourt drop-offs.
Arriving on a SWISS flight
When you land on SWISS, your driver follows the flight using your flight number and plans around the actual landing time. After passport control and baggage reclaim, you’ll meet at the agreed point, or in the arrivals hall if you’ve chosen meet and greet, and your driver will be waiting inside arrivals.
Connecting with Star Alliance partners
As a Star Alliance airline, SWISS shares partnerships with other alliance members. If your trip combines SWISS with a partner airline, check whether both legs use Terminal 2 or whether you’ll need to move between terminals, and build that time into your plans.
