I arrived at Heathrow four hours earlier for my 2PM departure for Dubai via Emirates. Going around the airport had never been this fun knowing that I will soon be home in 20 hours. I had never felt this free.
It’s almost half past 11AM. Two and a half hours more to go.
BAA Heathrow, also known as London Heathrow Airport, is one of the busiest airports in the world in terms of passenger traffic. It has four terminals — two serves the United Kingdom’s official carrier, the British Airways, and Virgin Atlantic, one for cargoes and terminal 4 for international arrivals and departures. Terminal 5 is ongoing construction scheduled to open in March 2008.

I have never experienced broadband the way it was when I was in London. My cousin is a subscriber of BT and she was provided with a package that was simply amazing. Aside from enjoying broadband and wi-fi capabilities, her plan also came with cheap evening and weekend phone calls and made digital TV watching convenient with the V-Box. No separate bills, no need to talk to a number of people. Imagine that kind of hassle-free technology just under one provider.
BT, also known as British Telecom, is one of the biggest broadband providers in the United Kingdom with millions of subscribers to boot. Its broadband service features a maximum of 8MB download speed 100 times faster than a regular dial-up. No wonder cousin was glued to playing her online bingo games while watching Filipino programs available on the internet. Her monthly subscription fee was easy on the pocket.
There are three options available for would-be BT subscribers. Prices and benefits of these packages vary in terms of broadband speed, allowable limit on downloads, number of wi-fi minutes and security features. Whichever you choose, you would still get the same broadband TV, 24/7 customer assistance, affordable evening and weekend phone calls and free wireless BT Home Hub when you sign up until February 29.
Why not first try their broadband speed test? Check out the connection speed in your area by supplying your postcode or your telephone number online BT website. Then choose which option would work best for you.
