We didn't want to deal with dealing with our luggage in the tube to get to the airport, and it was more convenient to hire a driver rather than wait on a taxi or Uber. Traffic is very bad in London! Our driver did notify us that he would be 5-10 min late, but we planned accordingly. He arrived, helped us with our bags, and we got to the airport with plenty of time to spare! Healthrow security is AWFUL! I highly recommend that however you get to the airport, plan for at least 4 hours before flight for an international trip!
