In fairness, I've found T5 to be a breath of fresh air compared to what went before it - T3/T4 bus transfers, lots of walking, queueing, ageing and swearing (to myself).

On reflection, it's a terminal that works very well IF you've been through it before, AND you know exactly where you need to go, AND you have time on your side. That's a lot of preconditions, which is darned unforunate.

Bottom line: I'd much rather transfer thru LHR T5 than make an inter-terminal run at Paris CDG. This is not a benchmark BAA should be proud of. Commendable start though - let's hope they build on that.
