London Heathrow Airport in a nutshell
In terms of the number of passengers, Heathrow is Europe's biggest airport. The airport is located on the edge of London, 24 kilometres to the west of the city centre. There are four terminals. Terminals 1, 2 and 3 are connected. Terminal 4 can be reached with the free Heathrow Express train. In 2008, a new terminal will be opened on the west side of the airport. The terminal will not be finished before 2015, and Heathrow will then have a capacity of 90 million passengers a year.
There are train stations in the central hall of terminals 1, 2 and 3 and in Terminal 4. In addition, London is easy to reach by car, although the roads around London and the airport are very busy.

Frequently asked questions
Is EasyTerra Car Hire the cheapest?
Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.
What do I need to do when picking up a car?
To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.
Are there any additional costs?
In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).
