Can we exit the airport and reenter to catch our connecting flight, or is that only allowed for EU travelers? As a group of 4 should we stick with public transport or is Uber a better bet?
Thanks!
Yes you can exit the airport and re-enter as long as you have the ability to enter the UK (e.g. US passport is fine, an Indian passport would require a visa). As long as there are no strikes on that day then public transport would be preferable - it will almost certainly be cheaper and quicker than an Uber from Heathrow to central London.
