Michael Palaeologus Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I think that Heathrow is in Zone 4. A Zone 1 to 4 one day Travelcard is less than ?16, even at peak time.

Floating Onion Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 macker Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> Zone 6, unless they've moved the airport or the> zones lately.Definitely 6. Also the last couple of times I've been through I've had to wait ages for the tube.

snorky Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I would like to make a sarcastic comment that the quickest way to heathrow is to matrch up to LL cop shop and declare yerself a visa overstayer with no means of support - you will be on a plane before you can catch your breath Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2304-quickest-way-to-heathrow/page/2/#findComment-68997 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pad Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Get a panther cab to elephant and castle (10/15mins)Bakerloo to Paddington (20mins)Heathrow express (20-30mins)usually takes about an hour Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2304-quickest-way-to-heathrow/page/2/#findComment-69242 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stradle Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Needing to do this route tomorrow from East Dulwich, anything changed since 2008?According to CityMapper app, they are all rather hellish routes taking over 2 hours.I would love to avoid the Heathrow Express and a taxi.My flight is early afternoon which makes it a bit easier.Currently I was thinking bus to Elephant and Castle, then Bakerloo to Picadilly Circus and then Picadilly from there all the way.

Earl Aelfheah Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 You could take east london line from Denmark Hill, changing at Clapham Junction for train to Feltham.From Feltham there is a shuttle bus to the airport.

Jakido Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Or go Denmark Hill - Victoria, then District Line changing to Piccadily line at either Barons Court or Hammersmith (the platforms are next to each other so you can avoid stairs).

cle Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Agreed on tbe above. If you are on public transport, Denmark Hill/Peckham Rye - Victoria - Hammersmith - Heathrow is by far and away the best.Paddington requires the slow Bakerloo and to head more north than needed. Plus the Heathrow Express is expensive. And Paddington is probably quicker via Victoria and Oxford Circus anyway.

ryedalema Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Brixton, Paddington, Heathrow Express is a pretty good route...you can get to Brixton from West Dulwich, Herne Hill, Buses etc. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2304-quickest-way-to-heathrow/page/2/#findComment-733553 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryedalema Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Btw - my OH commutes there from ED to Heathrow every day by car...maybe you can car pool/share petrol costs. He uses Waze and has cut down the journey time to max 1.5 hours...

worldwiser Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 AddLee is a ?75 fare to Heathrow from ED. Not the few pounds more than local firms. It's double. And they have no idea where they're going half the time.

mikerosam Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Hi All, I've just read this thread with great interest as I've recently launched a car-share airport transfer service for ski tourists in Geneva (I live in East Dulwich and have extensive business and leisure travel experience having always found the airport transfer to be both costly and inconvenient).I'm currently evaluating whether it would be useful for domestic airport transfers and would therefore greatly appreciate your feedback.How it works (It's essentially Zipcar for airport transfers);A customer books a car for a door-to-door transfer, we deliver it to their location (home/work/etc), they drive to the airport and park it just outside the terminal building.On the return they take the car from our parking and drive home leaving the car parked legally (on-street/off street).The benefits:High quality (efficient and simple) and low cost (approx. ?40,00 each way).We're looking at electric vehicles so the service could potentially be Green.Any feedback greatly appreciated.Cheers,Mike Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2304-quickest-way-to-heathrow/page/2/#findComment-749091 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffers Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I travel every other week so potentially interested. The big question is how far away the car would be from the terminal. "Just outside" seems optimistic for London but maybe you have a plan.

mikerosam Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 In Geneva we launched with vehicles being hand delivered/collected to/from customers at the meet and greet (kiss and fly) zone, which is at the door of the terminal building. We're now engaged with the airport to have dedicated parking bays in the same location.It would work the same way at London terminals, initially we'd run meet and greet until a commercial agreement could be put in place to have dedicated on-site parking.
