How is it wi-fi coverage in london airports or tube stations?

Non existent in terms of free wi-fi access.

There is no wi-fi on the tube except at Charing Cross station where
there is a trial underway. You have to pay for access to that.

The airports do have it but you're almost certainly going to have to pay
unless travelling business class and then it is free in the lounges.

Some main line trains offer wi-fi for free while others require payment.
These tend to be longer distance trains travelling some distance from
London. I am not aware of free wi-fi being available in main line
stations.

Some coffee bars and some pubs do provide free wi-fi.

A google search for "free wi-fi hotspots London" or similar will turn up
some information.


Bit of a special case, but London City has free Wi-Fi in both the departure
lounge and the Landside Check-in area.
