About this route

Route overview

LHR -> LTN is the long-haul to European low-cost connection scenario: a flight into Heathrow (BA, Virgin, Emirates, Qatar) and a departure out of Luton (Wizz Air, easyJet, Ryanair, TUI). 70 km and 65-95 min off-peak, up to 120 min in the afternoon peak (4-7 PM). The route follows the M25 anticlockwise (the northern orbital) to Junction 21, then the M1 north to Junction 10 and the Luton terminal. The main bottlenecks are the M25 between Junction 15 and Junction 21 and the M1 around Junction 6 to 10. The service operates 24/7, so we also handle overnight misconnects after a delayed long-haul. We recommend a 3 hour buffer before a Luton departure. The driver pulls up at the correct LHR terminal to your flight number (T2, T3, T4, T5) and delivers you to the Luton terminal.

London Luton (LTN) -> London Heathrow (LHR)

The LTN -> LHR run is a classic connection move: a Wizz Air or other European low-cost flight into Luton and a long-haul transfer out of Heathrow. 70 km and 70-95 min off-peak, up to 125 min between 4 and 7 PM. The route runs down the M1 to the M25, then anticlockwise round the western side of the orbital (Junction 21 to Junction 15), then the M4 into the LHR terminals. The main bottleneck is the M25 between Junction 21 and Junction 15 — congestion is constant in working hours. The service operates 24/7, so we also handle overnight misconnects after a delayed Wizz Air leg. We recommend a 3-4 hour buffer before a long-haul departure from LHR (bag drop, security, terminal walk). The driver pulls up at the Luton terminal to your flight number and delivers you to the specific LHR terminal (T2, T3, T4, T5).
