The only true National Bus Network in the UK is operated by National Express. National Express Coaches operate a comprehensive network covering over 120 towns and villages in the UK. Frequency is high on the main routes.
Price is the main attraction. Most of the National Express Coach routes run along Britain's motorway network, most are fairly direct.

Promotional fares tend to be aimed at the old and the young, as ever the fare structure can be complex.

The only major bus terminus in London is Victoria Coach Station. From here other regional coach lines do operate, mostly to destinations within 1-2 hours travel like Oxford. Ticketing for these almost always is available through National Express

National Express do offer various pass options for visitors who want to travel extensively around the UK.

National Express Airport
National Express operate a specialist coach service called "National Express Airport". These are special coaches which connect the UK's principal airports with its principal airports. Most services radiate out from London's Heathrow and Gatwick airports and do not enter central London.

EuroLines
It is possible to travel to London from most European countries on scheduled bus lines. Again the attraction is price.
Of course as England is an island, a ferry crossing will be involved as well. Eurolines are the dominant carrier. Eurolines offer passes as well as direct ticketing.

Airport Package - Return Ticket + Airport Hotel
If you have to stay overnight before your next flight then it makes financial sense to buy a package combining the hotel and coach transfers.
There is a wide choice of hotels from bed and breakfast through to luxury five star accommodation.

Transfers are by National Express Coach. There are frequent National Express services to Heathrow, Stansted , Gatwick & Luton. Package must include return transfers from your home town.

Heathrow Pick Up Points
The main coach station at Heathrow is in the central area between Terminals 1,2,3. There are underground moving walkways taking about 5-10 minutes to Terminals 1 and 3 from here. Terminal 2 is about 100m from the coach station.

Many coaches do not terminate at Heathrow, but go onto Gatwick. These coaches also stop at Terminal 5 on the other side of the airport. Terminal 5 is the 'middle stop' between Gatwick and Heathrow Central (Terminals 1,2,3).
Underneath the bus station is Heathrow Central Station where the Heathrow Express and Heathrow Connect trains run every 15 minutes to Terminals 4 and 5. This service is free.
