Heathrow
Airport to Euston
By
far the most comfortable transfer from Heathrow to Euston is to catch
the Heathrow Express
from Heathrow to Paddington then get a taxi or the Underground.
This is quite expensive though, at a fraction of the cost you can
do the trip using the Heathrow
Underground link. This option can be very crowded, but many people
do it and think of the money they're saving. Journey time is under
an hour, you need to change trains for Euston at Green Park or Leicester
Square.

Gatwick
Airport to Euston
From
Gatwick to Kings Cross there is a choice of train routes. The Gatwick
First Capital Connect train runs direct to Kings Cross, about
1km from Euston. This runs several times an hour via London Bridge
to Kings Cross Thameslink. There are buses virtually every minute
along the Euston Road from the station.
Alternatively you can take the more expensive Gatwick Express into
Victoria, then get the Victoria Line underground to Euston. |
Stansted
Airport to Euston
The
fastest and most comfortable option is to take the Stansted
Express train to Tottenham Hale, then get the Victoria Line underground
to Euston taking about an hour.
You can save some money taking the longer airport coach option. Take
the Terravision
Stansted Coach from Stansted to Liverpool Street Station, then
get the underground. |
Luton
Airport to Euston
A
direct train service operates from Luton
to Kings Cross Thameslink several times an hour. There is no train
station at the airport itself so you get a free bus shuttle from in
front of the terminal to Luton Parkway. From Kings Cross, about 1km
away from Euston there are buses almost every minute along the Euston
Road.
Much slower, but less expensive is the Green
Line Luton Bus. This operates several times an hour from In front
of the terminal at Luton to Baker Street, where you can get the underground
to Euston.

Euston
by Taxi
The only worthwhile airport to consider using a taxi from is London
Heathrow. A black taxi from in front of the terminal will cost in
the region of £50, (taxis are metered but fares will vary depending
on time of day and time taken).
A short taxi connection to say Paddington will cost around £5-£7,
Kensington around £10. |
Transfers
For Small Groups & Families
If
there are four or more of you travelling in a group, do explore the
option of chartering your own minibus. For Heathrow especially a minibus
has compelling advantages both economic and practical to using public
transport. |

Dot
2 Dot Hotel Shared Hotel Shuttle Bus To/From Heathrow /Gatwick
The Hotel
bus
shuttle is an established shared minibus service transporting travellers
between Heathrow Airport and their Central London Hotel.
You pay a flat fare per person, whether there is one or four of you.
You will share the minibus with other travellers.
The driver will drop you off at your Central London hotel in the order
which makes most sense given the location of the destination hotels.
Coming back out to the airport, you agree a time slot within which
the minibus will pick you up from your hotel lobby.
The service is well established and is used by many small tour operators.
You should be aware that this is a shared service, not a private taxi
transfer. You may have to wait at the airport 15-20 minutes for the
shuttle and you may get a mini-tour of London if the people on board
have widely dispersed accommodation.
Dot 2 Dot have desks in the terminals and plenty of their own staff available
at the airports to make sure the transfer goes smoothly.
