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?)


No. I must admit I was looking at train times to Luton Airport Parkway
station only. The coach times are to the airport.
