Authenticator App - Novaz

Heathrow Airport 2FA Setup with an Authenticator App

heathrow.com Supported

Enable two-factor authentication on Heathrow Airport to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Heathrow Airport asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.

A Heathrow Airport account holds bookings and passenger details, so keep it secure with 2FA. Besides an authenticator app, Heathrow Airport also offers SMS text codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

2FA methods Heathrow Airport supports

  • SMS text message
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
