Title: Swindon to Heathrow help Post by: Chubbs on Thursday, March 16, 2017, 15:16:21 Looking at the cheapest way to get from Swindon to Heathrow T5.
Train from Swindon to Heathrow (via Paddington) is around 47 quid. Coach from Swindon to Heathrow is around £30 but would rather stick with the train. I've figured out that i can do Swindon to Reading then Reading to Hayes and Harlington and onto Heathrow for around £32. Has anyone done this trip? Is it a pain the arse and actually worth saving £15? Title: Re: Swindon to Heathrow help Post by: Sippo on Thursday, March 16, 2017, 15:21:02 Why not drive? So much easier.

This is true but, i'm going out for work midweek and then my wife is meeting me on the Friday so we have a weekend in Paris and she will be driving the car to Heathrow.Title: Re: Swindon to Heathrow help Post by: 4D on Thursday, March 16, 2017, 16:19:24 Megabus. 7 quid.

Looked at the option but the timings all wrong.Title: Re: Swindon to Heathrow help Post by: 4D on Thursday, March 16, 2017, 16:31:12 If it gets you there a bit earlier then you could take a book :)
If it's for work aren't they paying for it anyway? Title: Re: Swindon to Heathrow help Post by: Chubbs on Thursday, March 16, 2017, 16:45:18 If it gets you there a bit earlier then you could take a book :) We're still weighing up who's going to drive and who will get the train/bus out of me the wife. If it's for work aren't they paying for it anyway? Title: Re: Swindon to Heathrow help Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, March 16, 2017, 16:55:36 If only these auto drive cars were a bit more advanced, you could drive to Heathrow and the car would drive itself back.... sorted.
