Airports in London
Naturally, London has a large number of airports. Flights from Helsinki either come in at Heathrow or Gatwick, which are the two largest airports in London. British Airways flights normally land at Heathrow; other carriers often use Gatwick for short flights from the continent.
Transportation in London
After your flight lands in London and you clear customs, you will need to choose from one of the many ground transportation options that are available in the airport. If you land in Heathrow, you can take the London Underground into the city. This line is the Piccadilly line; you’ll want a train that is going to Cockfosters. Alternatively, you can use the Hotel by Bus service. When you fly into Gatwick, take the Gatwick Express train to Victoria. Don’t forget to check a tube map as you’ll want to get off at the right stop. Instead of buying a ticket, get an Oyster card, as this will save you money both on the tube and on the busses.
If your destination is outside London, you can either drive there, or you can take a train from one of the five major terminuses: Waterloo, Paddington, Victoria, Euston, or St Pancras. Hire a vehicle using the ebookers website, and have it ready for you when you arrive at the airport.
