Flights from Fiumicino to Heathrow: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travellers who flew the route from Fiumicino to Heathrow 
Verified travelerFlew with British AirwaysOct 2026
Get to Rome early. You need quite a bit of time to transfer in LHR
Verified travelerFlew with British AirwaysAug 2026
Use BA, get there early to ensure time for check in and security. Be kind! Everyone is there doing their best and happy to help.
Verified travelerFlew with British AirwaysSept 2024
Pack your liquids and toiletries in plastic bags and be prepared to pull it all out. London Heathrow airport still does this, and makes you rescan through security between connecting flights even though you never leave their airport. If you think 2 hours between flights (time chosen by them not us) is enough, it’s barely enough if they fly into one terminal and depart connecting from another, so don’t plan to eat or drink anything in Heathrow.

Be prepared for three security check points. Confirm baggage check in. We paid twice.
