Heathrow Airport

British Airways advised I have to be at the airport 4 hours prior to departure.
Heathrow website advised: 3 hours.
My flight is at 10:30 AM.
What is the common practice? Four hours sounds somewhat strange...
 
We fly out of Heathrow a few times a year. For a flight at that time of day, I think you will be fine to arrive three hours early. You will likely have time to have a sit down breakfast too.
Kathy,
Thank you very much!

We typically aim for 2.5-3 hours before, and that has a healthy contingency vs. typical time to make it through security etc. Only aim for 4 hours if you have a 5+ hour car journey that might get impacted by a traffic jam.
