Heathrow
Like any major international airport, LHR has its fair share of problems. There is, however, a free high speed train link between the central area (T1,2 & 3) and T4, so transfers between terminals are now a bit more tolerable. I have used the airport many, many times and can honestly say I have never had a problem. Yes it is overcrowded and yes you can wait a while to get through security, but considering that it has the largest number of international passengers of any airport in the world, I think it does pretty well. Many US travellers moan about it, but LHR is a much more pleasant experience than the likes of JFK. At least if your flight is late, there are pleasant shops to wander around. Also, there can be queues to get on the runway, but none like the ones I have been in on every visit to JFK (over an hour's wait on my last visit - the crew actually had to shut 3 engines down to save fuel while we waited). UK immigration is by no means perfect, but at least while you are waiting you can use your phone or ipod!

O.K. there are some complaints about Heathrow. I make anything from 25-50 International flights a year and have done for the past 12 years. I fly into and from Heathrow about 20/30 times a year and find it infinitely better than Miami, about the same as LAX, but not as good as Osaka.
It's undergoing a face lift and terminal 5 should make it a lot easier for dedicated BA users. At least it's civilised and whilst the immigration side might be a little on the long-wait side at times it again is better and friendlier than any of the US of A Internationals. 2 1/2 hours queuing in Miami once - if you can't speak Spanish don't go there !!
I have to travel - it's my job and whilst I am not all that keen on England at least Heathrow in my opinion is a good airport. Try Frankfurt if you want to sit in an operating theatre, CDG if you want rudeness and to be ignored, West African airports if you want your wallet stolen and Rome if you want chaos!

Lost In The Crowd
My mother, at age of 75 and traveling alone, was not assisted on arrival as planned. She wandered off into the crowd, got lost, and was found hours later by a porter, sitting on a baggage trolley (mother, not porter). She missed her Canada connection and a porter saw to it that she got shipped off to a hotel until another flight could be arranged. At that point, all she wanted to do was come home ....

Over-crowded
This has to be the worst airport I have used.

This airport is too overcrowded. The fact is, half the people (if not more) inside the terminal buildings are NOT actually traveling.

As a result, we will be flying to our regular destination from another airport.
