Star Alliance has unveiled the next phase of its move to Heathrow Terminal 1.
Terminal 2 carriers – Austrian, Croatia Airlines, Lufthansa, SWISS and TAP – will relocate to T1 this summer.
Terminal 1 will have a new common and Star Alliance branded check-in area and a separate security line located directly behind the check-in area, which will also feature Fast Track for top-tier customers.
Passengers travelling on Air New Zealand, Asiana Airlines, bmi, South African Airways, SWISS, United and US Airways will also benefit from the new layout of Terminal 1, with check-in and ticketing facilities for these carriers located in the redesigned main concourse.
Bmi will launch a new lounge product in June as it relocates its international lounge closer to its primary gates.
Once the next phase of the move is completed, the 21 Star Alliance member carriers serving Heathrow will be nearly evenly split between Terminals 1 and 3.
