Default Easier - Stanstead or Luton to London

I'm heading to the Westminster area of London next week and I have the
option of flying into either Stanstead or Luton. Which airport has the
better rail links to this part of London? By "better" I mean
easier/faster
and/or cheaper.



Stansted is London's rural airport with a branch line rail service to
London
which takes on average 50 minutes and runs as little as every half hour
even in the early evening and not at all during the night. Luton is on
the
main line, has up to 9 trains an hour and a journey time of as little as
23
minutes. Yes there is a shuttle bus but it runs every few minutes and
takes just 5 minutes to get to the station.

Don't forget at Stansted you have to catch a train to get from the stands
to
the terminal.


usually not if you fly with ryanair
