LHR T5

Terminal 5 is Heathrow Airport's newest terminal.

Used exclusively by British Airways, Terminal 5 is a state of the art building - the largest free-standing building in the UK.

The glass and steel structure gives a feeling of space and significantly increases the building's energy efficiency. The design of the new terminal began in 1989, but government planning permission was only granted in November 2001.

The terminal was officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II on the 14th March 2008 and was open to passengers on the 27th March 2008.
