Terminal 2
Originally calle the Europa building and currently the oldest terminal being completed as far back as 1955. This will be replaced by the East Terminal in 2010.
Terminal 3
Opened in 1961 as the Oceanic terminal to handle all long haul. The terminal was renamed terminal 3 in 1968 and redeveloped to include a new arrivals building. Recent developments cost 106 million in 1906 to build piers to accomodate the new Airbus A380 used by Singapore Airlines and Emirates. Terminal 3 and 4 are both to receive a £1bn upgrade over the next 10 years.
Terminal 4
is connected to terminals 1, 2, and 3 by the Heathrow cargo tunnel. Until the opening of Terminal 5 this was the base for British Airways. This terminal accomadates the Skyteam alliance and 45 other airlines.

Built at a cost of £4.3 bn the terminal is split between the main concourse A and linked to two satellite concourses B and C. C will be completed in 2010. The terminal will handle over 30 million passengers and facilities extend to over a 100 shops and restuarants.
