The branches coincide with an increase in travel bookings, particularly since the re-opening of the US border to UK citizens travelling for leisure

The Post Office’s Heathrow operations have opened a brand new branch at Terminal 5, with the company also re-opening the existing branch at Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 3.

The new branch at Terminal 5 and the restored branch at Terminal 3 are both situated and operated by WHSmith.

The Post Office will be closely monitoring the impact the new Omicron variant of Coronavirus could have on footfall to its branches.

Katie Secretan, strategic partnerships director viewed these branch openings positively stating, “I’m delighted we’re now back up and running at one of the world’s busiest airports with our trusted strategic partner WHSmith.

“Tens of thousands of airport workers will benefit from being able to use our services, and for travelers who need to send off an important letter or parcel before jetting off on holiday, our branches will enable them to do that”, she added.

Both branches will be open between 6am and 7pm, each providing 91 hours of Post Office services a week and will be located on the ‘landside’ sections of the airport.
