Do not fly through Heathrow, ever, for any reason.
It is without question the worst fucking airport in the world.

no, I have been in Victoria couple weeks already.
Plane left Frankfurt over an hour late though.
Went thru Heathrow in the summer, I would swim next time rather than do that again.
What a joke.

Be careful if you run into Gunnair. If he promises to introduce you to some girls it'll likely mean a cruise out to some hobby farm in Metchosin or to his heavy petting zoo at Beacon Hill Park.

Thanks for the warning, I'm sure I'll get the same warning if I ever get near Manitoba again.
'77 was a looong time ago.

Last Saturday when we were sitting in the Punta Cana airport, there were a few people we met at our resort boarding their flight back to Frankfurt. Their plane took off just ahead of ours and I think was about a 9 hour flight. I was sitting on my couch at home 5 hours later watching the news. They showed the Frankfurt airport and all I could think of was those people we met and what they had waiting for them.

Amen to that! Last time I went to the UK I couldn't get a direct flight to Manchester (which is a great airport and had snow clearing ACHE and remained at full capacity for aircraft movements) so I flew to Prestwick and hired a car to escape hairy-Jockland. Much more preferable to LHR. I HATE LHR!
