We waited for a few minutes and one person looked at the timetable only to announce to us all that the last Hoppa bus from Terminal 5 left at 10.30pm! We were not happy!

One week later, I flew back from Italy on an evening flight landing at Heathrow at 10.20pm. I eventually arrived at Heathrow with only 2 ¼ hours to spare and due to the appalling wait at passport control and security due to staff shortages only made my flight check in by 10 minutes! Panicking now that I would not arrive at Heathrow the recommended 3 hours before my flight I went back into the hotel reception and ordered a taxi at a cost of £22 which I waited another 10 minutes for, with still no sign of any Hoppa bus. After 30 minutes there was still no bus so I went back into reception to ask and got told the buses were quite often late so waited another 10 minutes but still no bus. I was told not to worry, that bus was late but another was due in about 20 minutes so I waited, and waited.
