How to get to Heathrow from Kings Cross

Hi
Can anyone advise me on the best way to get from Kings Cross to Heathrow airport. I get into Kings Cross at 7:30pm with my 11 year old daughter and 2 suitcases. I don't really want to take the tube. Does anyone know how much a taxi will be to Heathrow. Or even to Paddington as I think I can get the Heathrow connect from there. Any advice would be great.
Thanks

Any reason for no tube travel? The quickest way would be:
Quickest way ; heathrow express -> paddington
Circle / Met line from paddington -> Kings X
If you can't get the tube, think of it more as 'how to get from paddington to Kings X'0 -
Hi
My daughter doesn't really like the tube, would it be expensive to get to Paddington not using the tube.0 -

Heathrow connect is a train.. not the underground. It's a bit expensive, but it's really quick (15 mins) and a really nice train - not busy, decent seats
I work next to Paddington station and know it pretty well
You could get the 390 bus from Paddington to Kings cross (42 mins) or just hop in a taxi.0 -

It takes 25 minutes. The HEX does the journey in 15 minutes
She has two suitcases

Remember that the tube to Heathrow is above ground for a lot of the journey.
It is a lot cheaper as well - £4 each. It will be at least that for a taxi to Paddington, plus an expensive rail fare on top.0 -
The tube does take ages - about 60 minutes, but it is cheap as a previous poster said, and faffing about with a cab etc to paddington will take just as long. That time in the morning the tube will be fairly quiet too.
Save me from spending...
