Hi, does anyone have any idea how to get from London City to Heathrow airport quickly ? we are due to arrive in Lond.city at 08:10h and depart from Heathrow at 11:45h is it possible to get there without any stress ?
Hi, I took the metro and the train, the journey was long, a good two hours including waiting for connections and I had 5 hours to change trains .. it depends on how fast you get out of the airport and get your bearings at the other one .. I don't know what kind of mood you're in, but I'd be stressed for sure .. I wish you'll be fine :)
