Ah, excellent detailed answer!

The only time I have to get through is at the very beginning of the trip, so I could underpack the 20" TravelPro. I didn't see that there was an 18" TravelPro.

I admit I was only checking eBags (getting more AA miles through their eShopping network).

We are taking BA into and back out of LHR (YYZ-LHR-NRT). Do I understand that they shove everyone out the door and through Immigration in that case? In other words, there isn't a dedicated International terminal where if you are just transiting through, you don't have to go through Immigration?

Thanks for all your patience and information!

Steve
