By 12.40 local UK time, more than 1,800 departing passengers had travelled through Terminal 2 and more than 2,400 passengers had flown in to the new terminal. 2,000 bags were checked in and 2,300 delivered to the baggage claim belt for collection.
“We have experienced a good start to the day in this brand new facility,” said Star Alliance CEO Mark Schwab. “We are pleased to see the delighted faces of customers enjoying this new travel experience.”

These link Heathrow with six destinations in the United States: Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, New York/Newark, San Francisco and Washington, D.C./Dulles.
The other 22 Star Alliance airlines operating Heathrow will move into Terminal 2 over the next six months: the first time all member airlines will be collocated at the airport.
