Heathrow Airport (LHR) is London’s primary international hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers alongside many full-service European airlines. It’s located about 24 km west of central London and is usually reached by the Heathrow Express (15–20 minutes, higher fare), the Elizabeth Line (25–30 minutes, moderate fare) or by national rail/tube and buses (45–60 minutes, cheaper options). Taxis and private transfers can take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic and tend to be pricier. Pros: frequent long-haul connectivity, extensive amenities and lounges; cons: can be busy with longer security and transfer times, and central fares may be on the higher side. Gatwick Airport (LGW) functions as a major international airport often used by both full-service and low-cost carriers; it’s typically perceived as a cost-competitive alternative for many routes. Situated roughly 45 km south of central London, Gatwick is usually reached by the Gatwick Express (30 minutes, premium fare), Thameslink or Southern trains (30–50 minutes, more budget-friendly) and coach services (60–90 minutes, cheapest). Road transfers and taxis vary widely with traffic. Pros: strong European and leisure route network and simpler layouts; cons: fewer long-haul non-stop options than the main hub and occasional peak-time congestion. Stansted Airport (STN) is commonly positioned as a budget and leisure-oriented gateway, hosting many low-cost carriers on European routes and some seasonal services. It lies about 64 km northeast of central London; travel options include the Stansted Express (45–50 minutes, higher fare for speed), national rail plus transfers, and long-distance coaches (60–90+ minutes, lowest fares). Road journeys and taxis can be significantly longer in heavy traffic. Pros: generally low-cost flight options and efficient quick-turnaround operations; cons: longer transfer distances to central London and fewer premium carrier choices. Luton Airport (LTN) typically serves as a low-cost and short-haul destination airport, popular with budget airlines and charter services. Located approximately 55 km northwest of the city center, it’s accessible by shuttle buses connecting to Luton Airport Parkway rail station (15 minutes) plus onward trains to central London (20–40 minutes), as well as longer coach services (60–90 minutes). Taxis vary by traffic and distance. Pros: often cheaper fares for short-haul travel and compact terminals; cons: transfer process can add time and budget carriers may have fewer onboard amenities. London City Airport (LCY) is usually marketed as a premium, business-focused airport serving short-haul and select European routes, including some long-haul services with weight restrictions. It sits about 11 km east of central London and is often the fastest option for downtown access: Docklands Light Railway (DLR) connections and short taxi rides typically take 15–25 minutes, with moderate fares. Pros: proximity to the financial districts and quick security/transfer times; cons: limited route network, aircraft size and baggage limits can apply, and fares may be higher than budget alternatives. Southend Airport (SEN) can be an economical regional option for leisure routes, with a smaller selection of carriers and seasonal schedules. It’s around 68 km east of central London and served by a train link to London Liverpool Street (roughly 55–75 minutes) plus local shuttle buses; coach services are also available. Road transfers and taxis depend on traffic and tend to be moderate in cost. Pros: lower footfall and straightforward terminals; cons: fewer flights, longer travel time to central London, and limited amenities compared with larger airports.
