Family Transport to Heathrow Airport- Tube or Minicab?
London Heathrow is one of the world’s greatest airports. It serves destinations across the world and lies at a distance of approximately 15 miles to the west of Central London. It acts as the chief operating hub for British Airways and its partner airlines.
The airport has numerous facilities for the convenience of passengers. Passenger movements into this airport are constantly on the rise. Business travellers visit London all around the year, while summer months are generally preferred for family trips.
Heathrow is well connected by different modes of transport
London Buses:
The National Express operates hourly services from Heathrow to Victoria station, for a journey time of 35 minutes. Services are also for transfers at night.
London Underground/Tube:
Heathrow terminals 4 and 5 have separate underground stations, while terminals 2 and 3 share one station. The service is by means of Piccadilly Line, which operates between 5:00 to 23:45 hours.
Heathrow Connect:
Heathrow connect bound for Paddington station departs every 30 minutes for an approximate journey time of 25 minutes. Prepaid Oyster cards are valid up to Hayes and Harlington.
Heathrow Express:
Heathrow express also operates nonstop services only up to Paddington station at a frequency of every fifteen minutes. The trains are equipped with all modern facilities like baggage space and wireless internet.
Services from majority of the public transport systems either commence or conclude in Central London. Passengers destined for areas beyond Central London are thus required to switch between same or different modes. Also absence of tube services at night also proves an obstacle in most cases.
Furthermore family transfers to and from airports, involving luggage, kids and multiple members can get challenging. These instances are addressed by comfortable London airport minicabs. Available right outside the airport terminals, they can also be pre booked to save time in long waiting queues. The carriers are available based on passenger numbers, thus large group friendly. They feature ample room for luggage and also come with additional child/infant seats at nominal additional costs. Besides door step pickup and drop off, passengers are also eligible for free vehicle upgrades, subject to availability. A dedicated help desk team is at constant service with free flight monitoring and suitable rescheduling of airport bound journeys.
