Going via St Pancras is 2hrs 44mins.

Huh? Looking at Webtis, I get 2hrs 28mins at 11:52 from Ely, and that
includes the usual ludicrous connection allowance from the Cross to St
Pancras, in this case 42 minutes. You could do it in 23 and arrive over half
an hour earlier in under 2 hours at 13:48 via EMT. Off the 11:25 from Ely
you could get there at 13:21 if you can get to St Pancras in 10 minutes.

Hmm, Transport Direct is padding the change in London to an admittedly
ludicrous almost one hour. Plus there's 17 minutes from the station to
the airport (does your calculation include that?)
