Default Travel Links from Heathrow Airport

Hi,
I hope someone can help.
I'm trying find out the best way (quickest) of getting from London
Heathrow Airport to Central London, and how long does it usually take?
Thanks Mark


Use the journeyplanner at www.tfl.gov.uk

If you're coming in at Terminal 4, the tube is closed and you'll need a bus
replacement to Hatton Cross or take the Heathrow Express to terminals 1,2,3
(free for that sector). If you take Heathrow Express through to
Paddington, it's very quick but also very expensive. And Paddington to
Southwark is across town. So you'd be just as well off getting the tube all
the way and save some money.

Word of warning - the tube can get very crowded as you get into Central
London, particularly in peak hours (or rush hours as the locals call them),
and it isn't easy to interchange at many stations when you have luggage.
Unfortunately you haven't said where you're going at Southwark for exact
directions, but I'd estimate just over an hour for your journey.

And remember when you get there it's pronounced Suthuk, not South Wark ;-)
