As the Stansted Express train has no traffic to contend with, it is the most reliable and fastest transfer option between Stansted and London. It is also by far the most expensive option too.
Terravision run a Stansted to Liverpool Street coach in direct competition with the Stansted Express at a fraction of the cost.

The Stansted Express train stops running well before the last aircraft land at Stansted.
The bus services keep running, and the Stansted to Victoria National Express service is a true 24x7 service. Also note that the London Underground only runs from about 05:00 to 24:00. Liverpool Street is a long way from most peoples London accommodation.

Stansted To Liverpool Street Service
Terravision coaches at Stansted start from the coach station in front of the terminal. On exiting the customs hall, look up and follow the signs down the escalator (lifts available) to the coach station.

At Liverpool Street the coach starts from Bishopsgate, number 155 at the eastern exit to the station. The coach actually starts around the corner at Finsbury Square, Moorgate

Liverpool Street Boarding Points
The Terravision bus from Liverpool Street to Stansted also stops outside Bow Underground station. This may save you a few minutes if you are connecting to the London Underground anyway. Bow is in Zone 2 of London's public transport system on the District Line.

It is slightly cheaper to purchase tickets on-line in advance with Terravision. The big advantage of booking on-line is that it guarantees you a seat on your preferred service. If your aircraft is late and you miss your reserved journey your ticket is valid for the next available service.
Those who turn up on the day can purchase a ticket but boarding priority is given over to those who have reserved in advance.
