Just get off anywhere along piccadilly line and wait for a T5 one to come along. Should be within a few mins

TreadLightly3 · 12/09/2019 18:56

I would stay on the train and get a transfer at the other end

TreadLightly3 · 12/09/2019 18:57

Ignore me, do what amiapropermum says!

babbi · 12/09/2019 18:58

I THINk the official thing to do is change at Hatton Cross, but anywhere will do.

Jacopone · 12/09/2019 18:59

You need to change at terminal 2 or 3 to get the train ( also Piccadilly line) to terminal 5.

Good luck! Hope you make your flight

Jacopone · 12/09/2019 19:00

You can change earlier as other posters said

Tolleshunt · 12/09/2019 19:00

Yes, get off somewhere convenient and wait for a T5 train. You can check how long you will wait for the next T5 train on the tfl site - just do a ‘plan my journey’ and put in the next stop on the Piccadilly line to where you are now.

Phew! My blood pressure rocketed just reading that. Hope you make it. Smile

joblotbubble · 12/09/2019 19:01

Get off at 2/3 and get the next train for 5

Don't get off at T4

ohfourfoxache · 12/09/2019 19:02

It does seem unusually slow tonight

Jacopone · 12/09/2019 19:02

Safe journey! All’ll be well. 🙂

ohfourfoxache · 12/09/2019 19:04

If you’re anywhere near Acton Town there will be a train from platform 2 in 6 minutes (so 19:10)

AutumnCrow · 12/09/2019 19:07

This is exciting! Hope you get there in time, OP. ✈

babbi · 12/09/2019 19:41

Thanks all 😀
Now boarding ✈️
Never would have made it without your advice ..,I’d have been faffing about trying to figure it out .

Big shout out to security team at LHR who saw my panic and rushed me through both scanners and ran me to the gate 😀
