Gatwick Express Reviews

We used the Gatwick Express when traveling to Gatwick Airport (funnily enough) for our Honeymoon. As it was a special occasion, we decided to treat ourselves and paid for 1st class which was £24.50 each for a 30 minute train ride! Pretty expensive!!

I've taken the Gatwick Express once, it's another expensive express rail link to a London airport but probably the handiest way to get to Gatwick. (You can also use the regular rail service but that is a little slower.) The Gatwick Express runs from Victoria station and BA/American Airlines passengers can check in there. ...  Read the complete review
