There's limited space everywhere. It is rationed by people not wanting to be there. There's limited space at the baggage claim but nobody is charging you to be at the baggage claim.

You think people don't want to drop off at the airport? There's literally a multi storey full of short term parking at every Heathrow terminal. They wouldn't fit in the drop off area at all.

You are charged to be at the baggage claim. The airline pays it on your behalf, from your fare.

  • you are not charged to be at the baggage claim

    • If you can find a way to utilize the baggage claim services without paying someone at some point I'd love to hear it.

      Just because you're not handing someone your card as you walk up to it doesn't mean you're not paying for it.
