Practical tips
Fares change with the day, the hour and how far ahead you book. Reserve as soon as your dates are fixed, and avoid last-minute purchases, which are usually the most expensive way to fly this route.
London has several airports, and going to the wrong one is a costly mistake. Read your e-ticket carefully to confirm the arrival airport and terminal, and plan your onward route into the city before you land.
A short flight still needs time for getting to the airport, check-in, security and the transfer into London. Add these steps to your comparison so you judge the real journey and not just the time in the air.
Bank holidays and summer weekends sell out quickly and push fares up. If your dates are flexible, travel midweek or at quieter hours, and compare a few days side by side before you confirm your booking.
Cabin and hold baggage allowances differ between airlines, so check them before paying for extras at the airport. Keep your e-ticket and a photo ID on your phone or printed, ready for check-in and security.

From there, trains, the Tube and airport coaches run into the centre, so decide how you will reach your hotel before you land.
