Reminder: Heathrow Express Closed through to 29th December

24/12/2016 by Kevincm

If you’re planning to take Heathrow Express or Heathrow Connect to London (or to Heathrow), there’s bad news as it is now shut for the duration of the Christmas period

As such, there is no service between Paddington and Heathrow between the 24th December and 29th December.

If you’re travelling today, allow extra time if you are taking the Piccadilly line.

If you’re travelling Christmas day, either use National Express, Uber, or a Taxi – but be prepared to pay if you’re using private hire cars.

If you’re travelling Boxing Day (26th December), there is a limited service on the Piccadilly Line. Private hire vehicles will still be charging the earth.

On the 27th and 28th December, there will be Piccadilly Line services between London and Heathrow, but these will be limited due to a shortage of trains.

Inter-terminal transfers will operate.

Now is a good time to check the Heathrow Express site and see what’s happening at https://www.heathrowexpress.com/timetable-schedule/service-plans#1203

If you trip involves Heathrow over the next few days, please allow extra time for your journey as you will be delayed.
