Transfers into London


Heathrow is about 15 miles west of the central area of London where most visitors want to go. There is a myriad of transfer options available.
In ascending order of cost these are:


London Underground
The London Underground network runs out to Heathrow Airport taking around 45 minutes and is by far the cheapest option. There will be an underground station very near your central London destination. Downside is chronic crowding of the carriages which can be stressful and uncomfortable if you have lots of luggage after a long flight.

Bus
National Express Coaches run several coaches an hour from the central bus station at Heathrow to Victoria Coach Station in central London. These are dedicated, comfortable coaches most of which have onboard toilets. Journey time is around an hour and is dependent on traffic conditions.

Rail
A dedicated rail express train called the Heathrow Express runs every 15 minutes into London. This is the fastest and most expensive option. A cheaper stopping train alternative called the Heathrow Connect also runs along the same track. If there are 3 or more of you its cheaper to get a taxi.

Hotel Shuttle Bus to Central London Hotels
A frequent door to door shuttle bus is available to transport all travellers to any Central London hotel. This is a shared service using mini buses carrying around 8-10 people.
Journey time depends on whether you are first are last off the bus. If there are 3 or more of you its cheaper to get a taxi.

Taxi
The black London taxi's that queue outside each terminal are well regulated and boarding is very orderly. You will not be hassled in any way like some world airports.
Fares are complicated but should be around £45-£55, depending on destination, time of day and traffic conditions.

Group Transfers (5 or more people)
For groups and families chartering a bus can be both the fastest and cheapest transfer of all.

To Rest Of United Kingdom
National Express Coaches run direct services from Heathrow to many major towns and cities in England and Wales and connections to everywhere else. Heathrow is not a major rail station, services only currently run to Central London. There are several rail-air coaches which connect Heathrow to the main railway network to avoid a trip into London.
