FYI: ExCel are operating a one way system within the venue, so the nearest station to get into the ExCel is Custom House and when leaving it will be Prince Regent.


If you decide to get the Jubilee line and the interchange at Canning Town is busy, it is a 20 minute walk.


There is more info here (if you have not already seen it)

Sadly not, the Games Travelcard which comes with your ticket will allow you to buy a Boarding Pass at the Oyster PAYG rate of ?3.20 single at the ticket office.

We have travelled today to Excel with a baby and had a great journey.


We Got the London overground from forest hill. We changed at Shadwell for DLR to custom house. It was quick and not busy. You can get bus to forest hill from ED but we actually drove and parked on wood vale and walked from there.

I made the mistake of going to North Greenwich where there was a 15 minute queue for the cable car, on the other side, there wasn't a massive queue.


Incidentally Royal Victoria station is much closer to the cable car station than Custom House.

Probably does not help as I live in Honor Oak Park, however my girlfriend and I went to Excel yesterday and we timed it out of a bit of fun.....from Honor Oak Park Station to front door of Excel took a fraction over 26 mins, how cool is that.


Also as we did not cross zones the fairs were really cheap.

    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
