Well flew into LHR today from BRU. The wait for checked luggage was about the same as the time spent in the air.

However about 10 mins after I reached the carousel, (about 15:50) luggage was just starting to come from the previous flight at the carousel, from Abuja. It reached that gate at 14:24.

Then some time later an announcement came over that the driver had picked up bags from another flight and they would be delivered to the carousel in 15 mins. That was at 16:10. The flight landed at 14:03.

Always this bad in T5 with BA?

Last time I flew into LHR with luggage was T2 on SN (also from BRU) and it was delivered quickly.

Not always that bad. We flew around the same time from Zurich into LHR on a monday a few weeks ago. Our bags were out about 10 mins after we arrived at the reclaim. It was a bit of a walk thought! Immigration was empty-ish.
