As we wait for word that Kate has gone into labor with the royal heir, several brands and retailers are selling royal baby themed merchandise to the anxious masses. Then, there is Heathrow Airport who will be GIVING away gifts in celebration of the prince or princess’ arrival.
As soon as The Duchess of Cambridge gives birth to the world’s most awaited offspring, the first 1,000 passengers in each terminal at Heathrow will receive complimentary gift boxes including Twining’s tea and Walkers shortbread biscuits and an adorable t-shirt.The team handing them out speak over 40 languages between them, and can even whip out an American accent on request for homesick passengers.
Is there a better welcome to the UK than joining festivities for the Cambridge baby? Other than Prince Harry himself escorting you off the plane, I’m going to go with ‘no.’ This is exactly the type of thing I would have wanted if Kate popped while I was on my 10-hour flight earlier this week! And if you must bid farewell to the UK, you will receive the gifts as well.. but really, why are you leaving?
Heathrow Airport has a long and proud history of honoring the royal family, from slapping a larger-than-life profile of The Queen on a runway to mark the Diamond Jubilee to naming its newest terminal in Her Majesty’s name, this gateway to London takes serious pride in the royal family.
