(IN SHORT) Heathrow Airport has ushered in the holiday season with a festive extravaganza for travelers. From live ballet performances to enchanting Christmas decorations, visits from Santa, and a range of entertainment options, the airport is spreading Christmas cheer. Passengers can enjoy performances, games, arts and crafts, and even a chance to win prizes. With careful packing advice and recommended arrival times, Heathrow ensures a smooth and joyful Christmas getaway for all.
(PRESS RELEASE) London, UK, 2023-Dec-11 — /Travel PR News/ — Christmas has landed at Heathrow this week as it announces the arrival of its magical festivities, including live ballet and choir performances, brand-new Christmas decorations, visits from Santa himself, and hundreds of prizes to be won by passengers across the airport.
As passengers start to travel to reunite with friends and family this holiday season, here are the top 10 things to look out for when arriving or departing from Heathrow this December.
Heathrow’s top tip for a smooth Christmas getaway is to pack Christmas luggage with care. To avoid any delays at security, remember to pack liquids, creams, gels, pastes and aerosols in separate transparent, resealable bags that can easily be removed from hand baggage. And remember, no Christmas crackers! Whilst travellers are keen to get going on their festive getaways, Heathrow recommends that passengers arrive at the airport no more than two hours before short-haul flights and three hours before long-haul flights.
Tonia Fielding, Director of Services at Heathrow said: “At Heathrow we’re always looking for fun and unique ways to ensure our passengers have the best experience possible before jetting off on their holidays. The festive season is all about reuniting with family and loved ones. Here at Heathrow we are proud to be at the heart of making that happen, which is why we’re pulling out all the stops in our biggest Christmas ever.”
