Had a 6-hour layover and was able to get three classes in as it was easily accessible from Heathrow, and had many options for training as they could hold at least 3 sessions simultaneously. Thanks so much to such a wonderful, welcoming crew. Fernanda at the front was an angel, and I most definitely learned a ton in such a short amount of time. Highly recommended. Appreciate the help!
