For a smoother ride, aim to travel outside of peak hours, especially in the mornings and late afternoons. Upon arriving at Heathrow, head to the designated pickup area, where your driver will be waiting. Remember that the airport can be busy, so keep an eye out for your driver or a sign with your name.
