Transit Query Heathrow

[Gredgy69]

Hey fellow travellers,

I have a question regarding transit time at Heathrow. We start our 2 month European adventure arriving into Heathrow (Singapore Airlines) at 05:55 and then will catch a flight to Dublin (Aer Lingus). I was wondering how much transit time we should allow between the flights. I believe that both airlines fly from terminal 2, which is handy and I was looking at either the 07:40 or the 08:50 flight. I would prefer the earlier flight, but think the timing might be too tight. I haven't been to London for 13 years so just looking for some advise from more knowledgeable and frequent travellers.

I personally wouldn't sleep well with this arrangement, particularly with the long haul flight at risk of forfeit. If everything goes right, they'll make it.

Most of BA's DUB flights to LHR arrive a T2. Only a handful are into T5, IIRC. If it was 150 mins with a flight into T2 and they were HLO, I *might* feel okay?!?

My sentiments exactly but he is adamant that he was told BA would through check his luggage and that he wouldn’t be required to go through immigration at LHR.
If he was travelling on his own I wouldn’t care less but his wife is a good friend of my wife and she is literally dreading it and can’t talk any sense into him
