Terravision Bus Stansted - London Victoria

Non-Stop, High Frequency Shuttle Bus Service Between Stansted & London Victoria

Terravision London Stansted Airport Shuttle Bus

The Terravision Stansted - Victoria Bus competes directly with National Express, the dominant UK scheduled coach operator on the Stansted to London Victoria service.

Unlike the National Express service, the Terravision service is non-stop. Terravision is also cheaper. If your destination is in the Victoria area this is the direct transfer solution.

There are currently seven airport buses between Stansted Airport and London. From a tourists perspective Victoria is going to be the most central London terminus to the sights and more than likely their accommodation in Central London.

Terravision Victoria Bus Service Operating Hours / Journey Times

The Terravision Victoria Bus Service broadly runs every 30 minutes, 7 days a week. From Stansted Airport departures are broadly between 7:15 a.m. and 1:00 a.m., just a 6 hour gap in the very early morning. From Victoria between 2:40 a.m. and 11:10 p.m.

Journey time is scheduled as 75 minutes but clearly delays through road congestion happen so do give yourself plenty of contingency going to the airport.

Advantages Of Booking On-Line

You can buy tickets at the Terravision ticket desk in the arrival hall at Stansted Airport or in advance on-line.

There are two main advantages of booking on-line.

First for return tickets you get a discount over purchasing on the day.

Second, if you book on-line you are guaranteed a seat and have priority over if you just turn up on the day. Terravision services use large buses but just like the low cost airlines that mostly fly into Stansted they always seem to be full or near full.(See What if My Flight Is Late underneath)

What If My Flight Is Late?

When you purchase a ticket for a Terravision service it is for a single stated departure time.

It is recommended booking a service at least 60 minutes after the scheduled arrival time of your flight. So what happens if your flight is late and you miss that schedule on your ticket?

If your London Stansted flight arrives early or late, you may use the same ticket at no extra cost to travel on the next available Stansted Airport to Central London bus service subject to seat availability.

Passengers with a ticket for the schedule in question are boarded first and get priority.

Terravision Stansted Luggage Allowance

Boarding Points London Victoria

There is no specific luggage weight limit or number of bags per person. Most airport passengers are using low cost budget airlines with very strict baggage allowances. Of the three airport bus lines, Terravision is by the far the most relaxed in terms of luggage you can bring along. Clearly if you are abusing this with something outrageous or hazardous there are limits. If in doubt contact Terravision.

Stansted & Victoria Boarding Points

Finding the buses is very easy and straight forward. In front of Stansted Airport's passenger terminal is a very large bus station. All the London buses are lined up with their own bays. There is a waiting room and somewhere to get a coffee and snacks. When you come out of the customs area, just look up and follow the signs downstairs to the bus station.

At Victoria the Terravision bus terminates at stop no 2, Bullied Way, Green Line Coach Station. The Green Line Coach Station is opposite Victoria Coach Station (two separate, but very close coach terminals). The Green Line Coach Station is about 600 yards from Victoria Underground and Rail stations and is well signed.

There is a Terracafe which doubles as a ticket office here. If you are departing on a very early or very late departure from Victoria the bus departs from the main road outside (Buckingham Palace Road) at bus stop number 9, so do check your ticket.
