For those with a nervous disposition, we're doing this notional 3h20m connection in a few weeks (on a Wednesday morning), on one BA PNR:

JER-LGW, BA2771 - ETA 1050. Hopefully a bit earlier than published. Bus to Terminal South, collect bags [20-25 mins?] and walk to NEX Coach stop [5-10 mins?].

LGW-LHR - NEX. Booked on FK200, ETD 1130, ETA LHR T5 1230. Flex ticket as a precaution. That should give a comfortable hour at T5 to drop cases, get through Security and head for the gate (in T5A). Use of First Wing [our first use] will be highly beneficial!

LHR-DUB, BA0830 - ETD 1410

Provided there are no dramas or hiccups anywhere, it should be fine. And if we do end up missing the DUB flight, BA will have the responsibility to re-book us on a later flight. Fortunately we're night-stopping in DUB, so no further connections needed on that day.
