Figures.
Thanks for reminding me why I really, really should not bother with
attempting to be remotely helpful to people on this group.

The intelligent majority find your contributions extremely helpful and
useful.

Agreed. Carry on posting, Paul.

That said, St. Pancras is a mess at present and a real schlep from Kings
Cross. The advice to the OP to stick to Stansted is fair.

What have you all got against West Hampstead? :-) I know it's a short
walk down the road, but for airport-to-Westminster can it really be beaten?

1. It's in north London.
2. Er...
3. ...that's it.

I wasn't sure if the OP meant he was going to Westminster itself or the
Westminster area - maybe Westminster station is not best for him. If it is,
then I guess you're right.

If he's heading to the Victoria end of Westminster, the Victoria line
would theoretically be more useful, but also has platforms the furthest
walk from St Pancras.

It's not that bad - it's mostly indoors to the tube if you go through
King's Cross Suburban station.

Except you are banned from doing that. Signs say you can only enter the
station that way if you are a GN or GNER customer. (Although they don't
say "a GN or GNER customer *today*").

Except I've never been challenged... anyway, how else am I meant to get
to the GNER booking office, nudge, nudge, wink, wink?

Er, what about Hull Trains customers?

I would have to check the notice more carefully. Perhaps someone else
might get there before me (it will be several weeks I think) and report
back.
