Question
Hi Michael
Please advise what is the cheapest way to get from Gatwick to Heathrow airport, please? I need to get to Heathrow where my car will be parked!

Answer
Hello Sharon,
Thanks for your email.
The cheapest way to travel between the airports/underground is by train, costing £10 per adult during off-peak hours. This involves travelling on the Southern service to Victoria and then changing via two tube trains to Heathrow (Circle/ District, then Picadilly line). Journey times are around 40 minutes from Gatwick to Victoria followed by a tube journey of around 1 hour.
A quicker option would be the direct coach from National Express which costs £19.
I hope that helps.
Michael
