@Kajon Try and get a seat as far forward in the trans Atlantic flight as possible and travel light, one carry on if possible, have a pen handy and fill out any customs forms as early as possible rather than in the immigration hall. At immigration there will be lines for UK and EU travelers and ones for other passport holders. At that point it is the luck of the draw, if his flight arrives at the same time as one from Lagos, Delhi and Sydney that’s unfortunate and prepared for a wait, if he is lucky he will be through immigration before his luggage hits the carousel, even if the luggage is first it will be just fine. If he is lucky from touchdown through customs 1hr and 15 mins. Well done to your son, he’s going to have a great time.
