I have an unholy set of flights booked from the US which culminates in a
transfer from Gatwick Airport to Heathrow Airport for the final leg of my
journey. I only have 3 hours between landing and take off of the next
flight
(need 40 minutes check in) and I assume it will take me 40 minutes to get
out of Gatwick. This leaves me with about an hour and a half to get from
LGW
to LHR.

Can anyone advise me as to the best way to do this? I'm thinking taxi, but
those Checker Cabs guys at G
Gatwick always have a laugh with prices. Last time it cost me £80 from LGW
home to Islington! Any viable public transport options?

Have a look at Speedlink coach service. Runs every 15 minutes and takes
about an hour. If the traffic is bad the drivers often divert around it. Do
a Google search to find their site. Your airline may provide you with a
ticket free. It helps if you arrive at the North Terminal at Gatwick and
depart from T4 at Heathrow, as the time is shorter between those two points.
