London Heathrow is absolutely disorganized. You need 2 hours between flights at a minimum.

For people flying from New York to London I would always use British Airways. The people are so nice. I would recommend getting to the airport 3 hours early as a minimum and booking well in advance. You will need to check in 24 hours in advance online or a 2-3 hours earlier than departure at the airport. There is no other option and this is a very serious policy. The flight is very easy and enjoyable though so I definitely would recommend.

I don’t think any airline has the best boarding. Maybe American Airlines has the most comfortable and up-to-date airplanes. Always go super early to any airport leave an apple AirTag in your bag always ask Agent if your chair and or seat will be properly working

If you have a connecting flight it can be a bit confusing. Make sure you have enough time between flights. The flight to London was great. It's the airport experience, including all the security, which stresses you out.

Connections can take some time to figure out at LHR. They often don’t assign connecting gate till just before boarding. So be ready for that.

BA is the only check in located on the first floor of Terminal B behind the baggage ans escalators. It is very hard to find. However, arriving early meant check in was a breeze and NO LINE at security. That has never happened at any airport. They are doing it right.
