Question
hi,
i will need to get from London to Luton Airport on dec 25th. what public
transport/ if any / is operating??

Answer
There is no public transport on this route on Dec 25th - indeed, there is almost no public transport anywhere on this day - sorry!

You would need to take a taxi, but do book in advance and expect to pay double the usual fare.

If you can let me know where in London you will be starting from, I'll try and find some contact numbers for you.

Expertise

As a full time, UK based, travel journalist, I travel almost constantly around the whole of the UK, searching out restaurants, hotels and "must see" places. Visitors for both business and pleasure are welcome to ask questions. I almost always travel by public transport, so questions on rail, air and coach / bus travel are also very welcome. I also regularly write about and use the "Eurostar" rail service between London and Continental Europe - which uses a tunnel under the English Channel - so I am able to help with any questions there, too.
