Been looking over travel options for a seminar I'd like to attend down south next month. Its being held at a hotel across from heathrow in four weeks time.
BA flight down the night before and returning at the end of the day works out to £88 all in.
Rail to Euston - just to Euston - is £95.50 with reasonable times of departure/arrival. 5pm from here the day before and 6:30pm end of day from Euston.
I haven't included the fare i'd need to Manchester airport ..nor the underground fare from Euston to Heathrow. I imagine the latter would be higher than the former. I was hopeing to stay at a hotel I know which has great breakfasts located next to Euston. As it is its looks like I'll be staying at the Ibis Heathrow.
Its pretty clear why people still prefer to fly.
