It has a high speed train service from London and Cambridge and is right
next door to the M11. I don't call that poor transport links.

The service isn't fast, frequent or reliable, and nor does it operate
for the full airport working day. Given that you've probably never
used public transport to Stansted (have you ever even used the
airport?), I'm not sure you're an expert on the subject.


As someone who lives in east London and has a 06:45 flight in a few days
time I am suddenly all too aware of the perils of getting to Stansted at
frankly awful times of the morning!

It appears my best bet is a taxi to Liverpool Street and then the 03:40
train.

For a similar flight from Heathrow I could leave at least an hour later
(admittedly getting a taxi all the way, but at approximately the same cost)
