Train travel from Paris to London St Pancras to London Gatwick

Hi Steve, Want to get another evening in Paris and looking at taking the morning Eurostar Train to London St Pancras and then jumping on the First Capital Connect train to London Gatwick ? How much time will I need when I get to St Pancras station to get to ? Thanks,
Mike

When will you be traveling ? What time does you flight leave LGW? According to the First Capital Connect your fare would be £ 9.40 from London St Pancras to Gatwick Airport. Looks like your travel time is a little over 1 hour.

Not long, there's no need to check in to the FCC train. When you leave the Eurostar section of the station, turn right immediately and walk to the far end. You'll come to a line of ticket gates that leads to the underground FCC platforms. If you don't have a ticket already, the ticket office for these services is immediately to the right. Think ten minutes to be sure if you don't already have the ticket to Gatwick, add another ten if you need to buy it.

Agree with Philip, just be sure you are traveling M-F. Sat and Sun for the next several months there is usually engineering work at Blackfriars on the FCC line and you may need to take Southern or Gatwick Express from Victoria.
