Hello Helpful People,
Getting ready to see London for the first time, as some of you are well-aware! We are doing some details now to try and make each step a bit easier. So....after 3 days in London, near Victoria Station, we need to get to Gatwick for our flight to Inverness which leaves around 12:25pm. My questions are:
Why does everyone say not to take the Gatwick Express Train in that it seems most likely to be faster (30 min from Victoria Station to GTW?) for what seems like maybe $30 one way vs the Southern Train, which looks like it makes many stops and risk it taking quite a bit longer?
Since I see we can book tickets in advance, is arriving at the Gatwick Airport 2 hours ahead of our flight the standard, as in the US? It would give us more time in London if we knew for sure we could get there on a non-stop train in 30 minutes.
Thoughts?
As always, THANK YOU ALL.
