Default Improving public transport access to London's airports

Fair question. Though if it went free, then given Luton Airports
drop-off charge for cars & taxis, it could attract 'freeloading'
passengers who want to get to the airport from a free drop-off point or
v.v. (Yes, the fee can be avoided by going to the mid-term car park &
shuttle bus from there, but the Parkway station forecourt might be more
convenient.)


I'm not sure the airport would mind, given that they advertise the
mid-term option (though few take them up on it). It's not just a
profit centre, it's also a way of reducing congestion.
