That sign has been there for some time now. The journeys are definitely slower these days. A few weeks ago I arrived at Pod Parking Station B to get the pod and there were two engineers working on one of the doors, while the other doors for the other pod wouldn't close. They hadn't noticed this, so I asked them if there was anything they could do. It seemed not, so walked up to Pod Parking Station A and caught one from there. Not exactly the premium experience LHR makes you pay for.

I'm giving up on parking at Heathrow now. The prices are ridiculous. It's becoming cheaper to take a taxi for anything more than a two day trip.
