Heathrow or Gatwick from ED?

[cosmonaut]

If you're nearish to Peckham Rye station you can get the Overground to Clapham Junction and change there for a fast train to Gatwick (the ones that go from Victoria - C Junction - E Croydon - Gatwick). That's my preferred route. I hate travelling to Heathrow; as a non-driver it's certainly cheapest on public transit to get to LHR but it takes at least 1h45. The Peckham Rye - LGW route is maybe about an hour.

If going to Heathrow and don't fancy the Piccadilly line, you can also go from Clapham Junction to Feltham and then a short ride on the 285 bus which takes around 20/25 mins.

I always go to London Bridge then to Gatwick. I suppose it depends which side of ED you live.

I agree. London Bridge then down to Gatwick is fairly straightforward.

I usually decide by price first, then airport :-(
