From Zurich to London it only takes you only a flight of one hour and a half. A comfortable way to get there. Getting to the airport, check-in, check-out, getting to the hotel etc. takes you longer than the flight itself. But no deal, we go there anyway. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

We took a British Airways flight and thoroughly enjoyed it. We rode in the Club World section and the seats were excellent. The seats reclined flat and we had footrest. Each seat had a divider between seats. We were constantly being offered food and drinks. Great flight!

HEATHROW AIRPORT London is 16 miles (26 kilometres) west of central London. From each of Heathrow's terminals the easiest and cheapest way to get into London is to catch the Underground also known as the 'Tube'. Trains run frequently, with a journey time of roughly 50 to 60 minutes with a cost that is less than five GBP. There is also the new "Heathrow Express" train which runs to Paddington station in just 15 minutes, every 15 minutes. The cost is ten GBP and Paddington station is centrally located in London with good rail connections to the rest of the country as well as other parts of London. For the major airlines there are now check-in facilities for flights leaving London Heathrow. Taxis into London will cost anywhere between 25 GBP to 40 GBP, available from ranks in front of the terminal buildings. You need to be aware of the morning and evening rush hours which can slow down any taxi considerably and thus increase the cost. If you have any trouble with transportation, ask at one of the help desks signposted throughout the airport, they have all the information you will need at their finger tips. GATWICK AIRPORT London is 35 miles (56 kilometres) south of central London. There is an express train service from Gatwick airport to Victoria station that runs every 15 minutes, and costs 9.50 GBP standard single, or 15 GBP first class single. This service takes approximately 30 minutes. There are also non-express trains that take marginally longer, but cost slightly less at 7.50GBP standard fare and 11.30 GBP first class. Depending upon the time of day this service can take anywhere between 30 to 45 minutes. There are a large number of different bus services that run into central London, which leave Gatwick's central coach station in the south terminal. It is not advisable to catch taxis from Gatwick as the distance is too great. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane
