Cheap Flights from London to Wellington — $1,131

London is served by several airports with different roles. Heathrow is the main international hub handling long-haul and premium carriers — typically higher fares but more non-stop options — located about 23 km west of central London; the Heathrow Express usually reaches Paddington in roughly 15–20 minutes (fares commonly sit above standard rail prices), while the Piccadilly Line tube takes about 45–60 minutes for lower-cost travel. Gatwick is a large international airport south of the city, often used by both legacy and low-cost carriers; it’s around 45 km from central London with a fast train of 30–35 minutes or cheaper coach services taking 60–90 minutes. Stansted and Luton are primarily budget-focused, attracting low-cost carriers and offering very competitive fares; Stansted lies roughly 65 km northeast and is linked by a 45–60 minute train or longer coaches, while Luton is about 55 km northwest with similar rail/coach times and shuttle transfers from the station. London City Airport serves business travelers with short-haul and regional services; it’s very close to central London (about 10 km) and reachable by DLR in 20–30 minutes, often valued for convenience despite a smaller route network. Pros across the network include broad choice of routes and carriers; cons can be variable transfer times, extra transport costs, and differing comfort levels between premium hubs and budget-focused airports.

Fly direct from London to Wellington for the fastest, most convenient way to bridge the long-haul distance — fewer transfers and more time to relax make the journey noticeably smoother. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a non-stop option cuts total travel time and reduces the hassle of layovers, making it a great choice for a comfortable trip to New Zealand’s capital.

Wellington Airport (WLG) serves as New Zealand’s main gateway for the capital region and typically functions as a mix of domestic hub and smaller-scale international airport. It usually handles full-service carriers and several low-cost airlines on short international and frequent domestic routes, so fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on timing. The airport sits about 8–10 km north of the CBD; road or shuttle transfers typically take 20–25 minutes in normal traffic, while taxis and rideshares can be slightly quicker but cost more. Public buses connect directly and are the most economical option. Pros: compact terminal, short transfer times and efficient domestic connectivity. Cons: limited long-haul options and occasional windy weather affecting operations.
