Hundreds of bags wait to be loaded into the high tech baggage system at Heathrow's brand new Terminal 5. The system at British Airways' (BA) new home can process 12,000 bags per hour.

silicon.com took an exclusive look around the terminal to see what customers can expect when it opens on 27 March.

We also took a look at the technology which keeps the terminal and BA's Heathrow operations up and running behind the scenes.
