Plane spot while you wait

PASSENGERS at Heathrow can now enjoy plane spotting as they wait for their own flights. The new ‘View Heathrow’ platform at Terminal 4 is the first of its kind at Heathrow since the old Terminal 2’s viewing platform was closed along with the building itself.

The 270-degree observation deck has a view of the southern runway, the control tower and British Airways’ Concorde. Fixed iPads on the platform show live flight radars so that visitors can identify the aircraft movements in front of them.
 
The deck, between gates 15 and 16, was converted from an unused airline lounge. It’s open to all passengers in Terminal Four during normal operating hours.
