London Heathrow and Gatwick Airports are about 90 minutes travel time from the city. London City Airport is much closer, which may be an alternative option for European visitors. Other airports are Stansted and Luton. Taxi and car rental services are available at all airports.

London Heathrow is served by the Tube and is on the Piccadilly Line (shown in dark blue on the London Underground Map), which offers a convenient route to the major hotels in Kensington and the West End. However, the dedicated Heathrow Express service to Paddington should be considered as a fast and efficient alternative. For further details visit the Heathrow Express service Web site.

London licensed taxis (Black Cabs) can also be booked on arrival at Heathrow. For further information and current tariffs, visit the Taxi Information Desks in the Arrivals lounge of the terminals. London Gatwick is served by National Rail connections direct to London Victoria and London Bridge (which is a short walk over the River Thames from the City of London). There is also a dedicated Gatwick Express service with non-stop trains into Victoria. For further information see the Gatwick Express service Web site.
