Thanks. *I now discover that flightstats.com says my flight has an
'on-time performance' of 0.1 out of 5. *Nice. *Which means 27% of flights
are on time, with an average delay of 39 mins and a standard deviation of 36
mins.

From the advertised time, I have 2h30 to make the last bus at Victoria Coach
Station. *There don't appear to be any sensibly-timed buses from Heathrow to
VCS, so that probably means taking the Picc+District and a walk (which I've
done before with luggage, takes about 15 mins) unless there's a niftier way
involving tube+bus.

The 15 minutes to walk from the Tube station to VCS seems a bit on the
high side, even with luggage.

Must say I'm surprised at the apparent dearth of NatEx coach services
from LHR to VCS in the late evening.


I'm guessing this is too tight to be feasible? *I should add that there is a
backup plan should the connection not work out.

Tight connections always add a bit of spice to a journey!

Though if you're heading to Cambridge, perhaps the train from KX is
the way to go. But that would/could be the backup if the coach at VCS
is missed.
