Advise needed from someone who knows London (20)
There's direct trains from Luton airport into London. I think they run every 20-30 minutes it doesn't take long either
Allegria46: Hi all,
I`m planing a Day visit over to UK, only for shopping at any of the Big Supermarkets and give that as a surprise Xmas gift to somebody.
My Question is, what Airport would you advise on using? I have been to Heathrow a few times and used the Tubes to get about.... but Flights from Frankfurt to Heathrow are almost twice as much as to Luton or Stansted. But i have never been there....all i know is that they far away from London....But for my purpose i just need to make sure there is a big Shop nearby.
Can anybody help me out here?
Thanks

Just a little update
as i came to realize that , since Brexit, i can no longer do the shopping i wanted to do in England, I have deceided we fly to Dublin instead, Tickets are almost the same and hopefully we finaly get our hand on a decend Steak&Kidney pie to bring back home...amongst other things.
anybody who knows any better, please feel free to get in touch
