As for clearing customs, that too is dependant upon the number of people ahead of your companion and whether or not your companion is singled out for a more thorough check. Assuming your companion's flight is "on-time" the entire process can take as little as 30 minutes and maybe as much as 60 minutes or even longer.

Many airlines are advising travelers to arrive at the airport at least three hours ahead of their flights, with at least one airline (Corsair) advising four hours.

You then need to walk from the gate to passport control and the luggage/customs area – this process can take 5-20 minutes, depending on gate location and immigration queues. Obviously if you have checked luggage to pick-up this will slow you down a few more minutes.

Chances are coming from the US you will deplane and be bussed to the terminal (congratulations!) and will have to go through passport control, collect your luggage and customs (usually there is no check at customs). In that case, it could take from 45 minutes to 90 minutes. Your arrival time is a very busy time.

Customs, except for the US, is always a walk through the Green Door - Nothing to Declare. Immigration/Passport control can take from 15 minutes to 2 hours just depending on the number of flights being processed, number of officers on duty, etc. If you have Global Entry your return to the US will be very quick.

Your train options There's only one train running directly from London to Paris: the Eurostar high-speed train. So that makes choosing the right train a bit easier! This train is seriously speedy. On average the journey takes 2 hours 28 minutes, at its fastest, 2 hours 16 minutes.

I usually leave 60 minutes to get through immigrations & customs, and that's usually what it takes. Also, as kileysmom says above, be sure to stop and get some picnic supplies on the level between the airport terminals and the train station.

Re: How long does it take to get through customs at Heathrow? Customs usually takes about 45 seconds, the time needed to walk through the green Nothing to Declare channel. Passport control is another matter.

Clearing customs itself takes 30 seconds, if you take the green lane and have nothing to declare, and don't get pulled over by customs agents. Passport control, I usually clear that in about 5 minutes, although one time they were backed up and it took about 20-30 minutes.

You'll need to purchase train and ferry tickets separately and finesse train station-port transportation on your own. The journey will also take 10 hours, so it's best to leave that option to your memories. Instead, here are some more affordable ways to get from London to Paris and back again.
