This airport is about 65 km from London, and getting to the city is really complicated. There are two ways, through the train, which has a crazy price, more than 50 euros per person x return (the price varies if you buy online or on arrival) or through the bus, National Express, slow, about 1 hour and a half but much cheaper. (I recommend buying it online, even in this case you save a lot of money), I also add something very interesting, that from this place you can, without spending a fortune on trains, also take buses that go to other cities in the United Kingdom, I saw on the billboards direct connections to Birmingham etc. That said, everything is neat, and in my case the controls are very fast and effective and not too invasive. I also add that the staff has always been kind. The only negative is the prices of the stores a bit 'expensive, and do not change the money in money changers (in which there is written commission .... and .... I think) because they eat too much in the spread of currencies.
