"Journeys solely between Heathrow Terminals 123, Heathrow
Terminal 4 and Heathrow Terminal 5 will be free for all Oyster
card and Oyster photocard holders"

And how many airline passengers have Oyster cards? Maybe they
should install vending machines in the baggage reclaim areas.

Are you sure that's a real issue?

I don't think many of the travellers changing flights will bother
to queue up and get an Oyster card once they've reached the tube
station.


but why will the majority changing flight go land side in the first
place


How else do they change terminal?


Airside, using the free bus service/
