Transportation from Heathrow
The airport is 25 km from the city toward the southwest. The connection with London centre is used more by train or subway:
Heathrow Express. This is a line in 1998 that enabled 15 minutes brings you to Paddington station. It's easy to find their access once at the airport because there are several visible signs that mark the way to the "Heathrow Express". The ticket can be purchased before boarding or once on the train. To return is interesting to know that at Paddington Station will find desks over two hundred airlines where you can check-in directly. This is a good idea on the return trip: the bill Suitcases in Paddington and take the Heathrow Express that leaves us in fifteen minutes at the airport.
Metro. It takes half but more expensive than the Heathrow Express. Convoys of the Piccadilly line takes an hour at Heathrow unite with the city centre. The Travelcard allows tourists to go from the airport to the hotel and London merodear If you need to make several trips combining metro and buses and we want to spend less. Go by subway is more advisable for the price, but only if we are going ahead, because the rush or paragraph heavy luggage is not very desirable. I consulted the map of London Underground.
There is a shuttle bus between Heathrow and Gatwick in each terminal. British Airways recommends that you have at least three hours to make this link.
The official website of Heathrow Express is Heathrow Express, where available the updated schedule, prices and may even draw tickets online.
The website is http://www.london-airport-shuttle.com airport, where we will find information terminals (available terminal each destination), departure and arrival times, and rates for rental cars.

Beware of the unlicensed minicabs, which are very conducive to suffer assaults or robberies.
For women there is a special night called Ladycabs operating with conductive and whose telephone number is +44 (020) 7254 3501).
There are even special taxis for public gay, Freedom Cars, but are really unnecessary because there is no homophobia in other companies.
