Gatwick Express - fastest transfer between Gatwick and Stansted

Gatwick and Stansted Airports are on opposite sides of London, both well outside London. So a transfer between both Stansted and Gatwick airports is not a short journey.


The fastest route by road vehicle follows London's orbital motorway around London for most of the journey. One of Europe's most congested roads this M25 motorway makes journey times unpredictable, especially at peak commute times.
