Greetings- I will be flying into Gatwick and my daughter will be flying into Lutton. We plan to meet and move forward to Bath. Where will be the best place to meet and then depart London for Bath?

Well as you are both heading for Bath if you are taking the train you could both agree to meet at Paddington Station ( by the Paddington Bear stall in the middle of the concourse ? ). If you are taking the bus you could both make your way to Victoria Coach Station and agree to meet there ( agree to wait by a certain gate - say gate 7 ). A third way would be if you want to get something to eat, head to central London ( your daughter will get off the train from Luton at Kings Cross, you will get off the train from Gatwick at Victoria ) both of you agree to meet at a pub that serves food like 'The Prince of Wales' on Drury Lane. Both of you get a black cab to the Prince of Wales and meet there. P.S. If you do use The Prince of Wales, Eddie, the landlord is very helpful and will show you a nice safe place to store your luggage while you eat.

Al's suggestions are excellent. Here's one more. If you're taking the train from Paddington to Bath, then you could meet at King's Cross Thameslink. Both you and your daughter would take a First Capital Connect train directly from your respective airports to King's Cross Thameslink.
