5 ways to get home from the airport

Imagine this. You have just landed at Heathrow after 3 days of intense work meetings in Berlin. The flight home was exhausting and now that you have landed you need to go home. Most people will book their airport transfer service in advance as part of their travel arrangements, but for those who don’t, it’s just another burden to have to arrange something there and then.

Here are 5 different transportation methods that you can use for your airport transfer service:

1) Taxi with driver. Probably the most luxurious method of transportation of all. Sit back and relax in luxury after being picked up from the airport arrivals area and whisked in style, literally, to your front door. There’s nothing else to worry about other than ‘you’ve got the key to the front door!’

2) The London Underground. A great way to get around London, but how convenient is it for your airport transfer? If you live near a tube station, then it’s quite convenient, but not exactly stress-free, especially if your flight landed around tea time.

3) Take a taxi from the city. Convenient. Yes. At London airports you will always find a large number of Black Cabs parked ready to take you to your final destination. Black Cabs are an inexpensive way to end your trip in relative comfort.

4) Get on a bus. Again, easy enough to do, but you could end up standing around waiting for the correct bus to pass. Cheap and cheerful! (well, sometimes not always cheerful)

5) Have the family pick you up. A popular option is to have a family member pick you up at the airport. Come home in relative comfort with people you know well, and catch up along the way.

There’s no shortage of transportation options, and each method itself has plenty of options in terms of companies you might use. Sometimes the most important factor when choosing your airport transfer service is the cost. If you opt for a more luxurious form of transportation, you’ll inevitably pay a bit more, but what’s the price of a little luxury after a stressful journey?
