On Saturday I need to get to Heathrow (T2) for a 6am flight.


I was hoping to get the Paddington Express but the first train is at 5.10am which is not good enough. Any recommendation for a reliable cab company? The last two times I have booked an early morning pick-up both companies turned up late!


Any other option for getting to Heathrow for such an early flight (I have no private car)?


Thanks, S

You could consider an overnight stay in a nearby hotel . Travel Lodge ??


Travel on public transport.


No rush in the morning.. not much dearer than a cab.

and usually a bus to the airport from the hotel every few mins.


Arrive on time fresh for your flight.

Always use Addison Lee for work trips of this nature. Not the cheapest, but still generally cheaper than a Heathrow hotel. Their size means there are always lots of extra drivers around (e.g. if your scheduled driver is held up on a previous job). They've generally been 5-10 minutes early for my pick ups.
If you want to save a few bob and don't mind a bit (not much) of extra effort, get a night bus to Victoria and National Express run coaches to Heathrow at 3AM, 4AM and 5AM for just ?10, 40 minute journey time. Don't know how full they get, might be wise to book.

    • Yes, thanks, that's true, the previous information on here might be out of date even if I could find it. I was hoping someone on here might have up to date info. I will phone them in the morning.  I had a previous thread on here about the Oxfam book shop but for various reasons I haven't been able to get stuff down there, and now I just want it out of the way.
    • Best to call them. What might have been the case last week may not be now. There's also Oxfam book shop in HH
    • Because it's easier to ask on here than have to make a special trip out when I'm very busy and also expecting deliveries 🙄 And then possibly have to go out again with the books. And I thought I remembered a previous discussion on here. Isn't that what a local forum's for?
    • Our very large apartment in a converted industrial building in the area is very unusual so we are keen to find a really good local estate agent who may have experience  in marketing and selling unique properties in the area and who  can 'think outside the box' . We already know of all the agents who deal in unusual properties throughout London (ie not just in this area)  eg 'The Modern House' etc etc. thanks for any tips!
