Terminal 4 at London Heathrow airport will reopen to passenger flights on Tuesday 14 June 2022.
The Terminal closed to departing flights in 2020 as Heathrow consolidated all flights in Terminals 2 & 5 in response to COVID-19.
There were doubts as to whether Terminal 4 would reopen. Before closing, the terminal hosted a relatively small number of flights.
Terminal 4 is not the easiest location to operate at as it is south of Heathrow’s two runways. That said, its reopening will relieve congestion at other terminals.
