Flights to London February 2007 from Belfast

Options
:hello: everyone

I am hoping someone can advise me about the best (in terms of cost and convenience) flights to book for my weekend in London next February (16th - 18th). I am staying near Heathrow.

I have checked Easyjet and the cheapest for suitable times is approx £55.00 flying into Stansted and departing Luton. Is it easy and cheap to get to Heathrow from these airports.

BMI Baby is £94.50 :eek: directly to Heathrow - OK, it is obviously very convenient but I consider it very pricey for my budget.

Flybe fly to Gatwick for £66.98 so I just need to know the cost of getting to Heathrow from there!


I am really :confused: as to the best flight to choose so I would really appreciate some suggestions as to what to do.


Many many thanks for reading this

Fiona

    In the grand scheme of things £94.50 isn't bad for a rtn to LHR. Although LGW is cheaper, it'll cost you the difference to get there on the Speedlink. It may be a little cheaper if you connect by rail/tube but it takes ages. LTN is a better option (1hr 10mins) than STN but you can get buses direct to LHR from both. Standard rtn is £21.50.
    When you add up the extras I reckon you'd be better just going straight to LHR.
    Timmay!

    TRY AIRBERLIN TO STANSTED THEY ARE REASONABLY CHEAP ABOUT £80 RETURN. stansted i found esy to get from there is a stansted express into the centre or a slow one which is cheaper. nice scenery.

    Thanks a lot everyone for your helpful replies :) I think I will go to Heathrow in the end as it seems to be the best option all things considered.

    Take care
