Smoking is only permitted in designated areas outside the terminals.
The smoking facilities inside the terminal are listed below.
Electronic Cigarettes are also prohibited.
General update from Mo M on the 18th Feb 2019 (use at your own risk): If you are in a non-smoking terminal you can take the transfer bus to Terminal 4. Have your original itinerary to show Terminal 4 security before you go through it. Plan on at least 1 hour to and from travel time (I came from Terminal 2) as the bus has to wait for all planes leaving Terminal 4 and the bus route is clear.
No Smoking areas.
Update from Mike H., August 2022: Confirmed smoking area at T2 by A1 gate is still present.
Update from Dev, June 2022: Gate A1 smoking area still very much active.
Update from Steven M, May 2022: Smoking Area next to gate A1 still open.
Update from Gary, Sept 2021: As of Sept 19th 2021, smoking area next to gate A1 still open. Signposted at top of stairs behind shops on right.
Update from Alex, July 2021: Sheltered
outdoor smoking area still present at bus gates level (A1-A5)
Update from Alex, Sept 2020: Great smoking area at Heathrow’s Terminal 2 post-security. Though outdoors due to smoking regs, it does have decent seating, is well protected from the elements and, possibly most importantly, has outdoor heaters (photos below)
UPDATE: I can confirm that
the smoking cage in the Heathrow Terminal 3 transit area has gone.
UPDATE: LHR: Smoking area at
T3 Bus stop obviously doesn't exist any longer. When I went there on
1st Sept 2018 I did not see any sign and staff told me this area was
closed. Maybe somebody else can confirm.
Update from Mikhail F, Feb 2020: Smoking lounge still exists.
Update from S.M., Dec 2019:
Smoking area still there immediately
after Burberry
Update from Steve, Oct 2019: Smoking area still open. Turn left
after security, turn left at Burberry. Sign posted. Down 2 flights
of stairs but escalator up.
Update from Hyunseok on the 21st June 2019: They still have smoking area. After the security check go left. Pass the Rolex, Gucci, and Burberry. Then you can find a sign for smoking area
Update: Jan 2019: The smoking area in Terminal 4 is still open. Just been there. Feedback from Frans.
From MartinMUC, November 2021: they have a IQOS and other vapes smoking box inside the tobacco POS approximately across A11, but vapes only...
From Niclas, 6th July 2019: If you are transiting and have some
time, just exit the terminal, smoke outside & enter again. Yes,
safety control again at entry but usually pretty swift. Done it
several times. CS (by Gate A10?) offers a service guide to smoking
outside as well. Unnecessary, its the same procedure. NB! You cannot
exit the terminal if you follow Transfer flight signs.
No Smoking areas. Thanx to Darren Hilton for the information.
Passengers are not permitted to use electronic cigarettes within the premises. Where you are intending to carry cigarettes in your hand luggage, please check with your airline to ensure they are allowed on board the aircraft.
