Default Easier - Stanstead or Luton to London

But he does have a point about the all-stations service to Luton; it's
not actually faster than the Stansted Express, but at 47 minutes
versus 44 or 46 minutes, there's not much of a difference.



But... the bus! What about the bus you have to take to get to Luton
Airport Parkway?

;-)


Actually, it's quite fun standing on the bus winding its way down the
hill and round the roundabouts to the station. Plus anything that's free
can't be that bad... :-)

On a slightly serious note, I've found the shuttle bus to be pretty good
- it runs all day and connects to the night Thameslink trains too, and
there's almost always one waiting to pick up passengers as one doesn't
leave until the one behind arrives.
