Rail travel from london-blackfriars, with Holiday Extras

Rail travel from London Blackfriars.

Airports by rail, with my employer, who I work for. I am not earning a fee on this (damn).

To take advantage of the best prices you will need to prove you are a leisure traveller, en route to the airport, so you will need to give either your flight numbers or your holiday booking reference. I don't think you will need to give this when you arrive at london-blackfriars station but you may be asked to give them on yr journey from the station to the airport.

Going to the airport on the train is great, you can take a nap, read a book (even at night), play a game, or just gaze out of the window... The other restriction to buying these cheap train tickets from the station to the airport is that there must be at least two adults travelling together. But another great advantage is that children go free. All children under 5 go free, and then one child over five but under sixteen per adult travelling on the train to the airport.

make sure you leave plenty of time to get to the airport early enough to eat, shop and so on, so check the times of trains from london-blackfriars station before you go. If you end up with spare time at the airport you can always read or play a game again! As you have bought yr ticket in advance, you don't need to worry about the opening hours of the station.

You can get a tickets this way from london-blackfriars station to Gatwick, Luton, Stansted, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, and Newcastle. Holiday Extras don't sell train tickets from london-blackfriars station to Heathrow and some other airports, because you can't get one train ticket to get you all the way there, boo! Damn you Heathrow Express!
