Airport Express
Published on July 7th, 2009.
Convenience is key from London’s airports to Central London.
Airport express trains are frequent and reliable and cost less than a cab ride through London traffic. Select BritRail passes are valid on the Airport Express trains as these trains are apart of the National Rail Network; these include the BritRail FlexiPass, BritRail Consecutive Pass, BritRail England FlexiPass, BritRail England Consecutive Pass and the BritRail + Ireland Pass. In addition, the BritRail London Plus Pass includes 2 vouchers to have access to your choice of Airport Express.
Heathrow Express
Travel non-stop between Heathrow Airport and London Paddington station in 15 minutes on the Heathrow Express. With trains departing every 15 minutes, the Heathrow Express is by far the easiest way to get to Central London!
Gatwick Express
Gatwick Express is the fastest way to travel from Gatwick Airport to Central London – the 27 miles are covered in just 30 minutes. Trains leave every 15 minutes, and travel from London Victoria and Gatwick Airport.
Stansted Express
The Stansted Express is the fastest way to and from Stansted Airport. With trains departing every 15 – 30 minutes, this amazing service takes you directly from the airport to London Liverpool Street Station in only 42 minutes!
A supplementary ticket for this service can be purchased separately for a single use by visiting

Hi Erika,
The BritRail pass does not include service on the London Public Transportation system (tube and buses). We regret any inconvenience.

If I am a Britrail Flexipass Holder, will my Heathrow Express trip into London count as a day of travel?

Hi Eliza,
Yes, boarding the Heathrow Express will count as a day of travel. With a BritRail FlexiPass you have access to the national rail network of Britain which includes the Airport Express trains.

Does this also go for the Gatwick Express? ie: boarding this train counts as a day of travel?
thanks!

Hi Clare,
Yes, boarding the Gatwick Express would count as a travel day on your BritRail Pass.

Good morning
We have bought three BritRail Euro Flexipasses, valid 2 days. On our way back to London from Edinburgh we will arrive at Charing Cross and intend to continue to Heathrow Airport for the flight back. Am I right presuming that we have to buy an underground ticket from Charing Cross to Paddington Station where the BritrailEuroFlexipass will authorise us to take the Heathrow Express?
Thank you for your answer.
Best wishes,
Erika Amsler
