Luton Airport is one of the biggest airports in the country, serving millions of passengers each year, and is one of the primary hubs for visitors to London, whether this is for business or pleasure. Whilst the airport started off as a base for the RAF during the Second World War, it has come a long way from there, now serving flights from many airlines including EayJet, Thomson, RyanAir, Monarch Airlines and Wizz Air. Most flights from Luton are around Europe, but some are also offering to Northern Africa.

If you wish, it is very easy to get to Luton Airport via train. Luton Airport currently has no station so to get to the airport it is best to come in via St Pancras Station in London. If you are coming from Central London, the best way to get to St Pancras is to hop on the tube to the station, perhaps from London Bridge, Blackfriars, City or Farringdon. If you’re from further afield then look for trains into one of these stations and hop on. St Pancras is available as a common destination from a lot of trains coming down from the north of the country. From St Pancras you can get a regular train to Luton Parkway which is very close to the airport. Then from there you simply need to hop on to the shuttle bus which will take you to the airport itself. You can buy tickets from rail companies that will also be valid on the shuttle bus, thus bringing your overall price down, but even if you don’t buy one of these ‘through tickets’ the fee is nominal anyway.

If you are flying away on holiday from Luton airport, the best way to make sure you don’t miss your flight is by staying overnight in a hotel near Luton. Unfortunately, in Britain even if you set off many hours before your flight there’s still no guarantee you’ll get there on time – if you’re coming by taxi, your own car or a rented car, there is every chance you could get stuck in traffic especially in the busy summer months where everyone is racing to the south of England to enjoy the nice weather, or racing to the airport to catch their flight to a foreign country. This means that there are often huge tailbacks, even on fast motorways because of large volumes of traffic and, more often than not, collisions. The best way to avoid getting stressed about missing your flight when stuck in these queues is to stay overnight in a hotel and enjoy a 5 or 10-minute drive the next day to catch your flight.

Alternatively, you may be flying into Luton for business purposes which means you will need a place to stay while you conduct your meetings. Luton is very well set up for this with hotels to cater for every company’s budgets (for you’ll surely be claiming back the room bill from the company) with hotels ranging from budget ones, where you simply need a place to sleep, to more luxurious ones where you can properly relax and get some work done to relax for the next day.
