A fantastic travel day Helen!
It's so funny as we took your exact flight LHR to PHL only two days later and had the complete opposite experience to you so thank goodness you flew the day you did.
T3 was absolute chaos on the Wednesday and by the time we got through security we had enough time for a quick Pret before boarding our flight! It was really empty though so we spread out a bit and our cabin crew, apart from mentioning it a few times at the beginning, seemingly didn't remind anyone to wear masks throughout!
We filled out the customs forms on the plane but then didn't need them as we got directed to the machine to enter our details and do our finger prints before seeing the immigration officer. So strange how both our experiences were completely different so close in time

Wow! Isn’t that weird? So many opposites! 🤣

Thank-you so much for posting your trip and all the photos. I've got 3.5 months until our trip and have just started reading trip reports - yours is the first and I've already got 2 handy tips...so thanks! I'm really looking forward to reading the rest of it 😊

Aw thanks so much. I love it when folk say they’ve picked up something useful from mine, as reading other peoples trip reports and taking notes made my holidays so much better. That’s what the dibb is all about ❤️

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation of arriving in Philadelphia we are doing the same flight in December just slightly later in the day. Think we have 3 hours to connect. Has put my kind at rest as travelling alone with my children 13 and 17. Can I ask was there anywhere to get food at Philadelphia airport once you had put your baggage back on the luggage belt?

I didn’t look to be honest as we just dropped and headed straight through to the next gate sorry. I can’t even remember if we passed through any shops

No worries I just wondered. I used to live in Philadelphia so was hoping to get a proper Philly CheeseSteak on my way through!
