Five hours in Heathrow

Thomas_Holding

I have family who are arriving at 4.30 pm on a Saturday and flying out from the same terminal 5 hours later.
Will it be possible for them to come out and say hello to me do you think?  They are emigrating so this will be the last chance
(I hope this is the correct board).

Where are they flying from to get to Heathrow? Guessing from somewhere else in the UK?

Yes they can, if they are flying from overseas then they just need to factor in the time for going through immigration to get landside to meet you and then security to go back airside.

So no immigration and they'll have to go through security anyway
