Are National Express buses to Luton airport frequently delayed on Saturday afternoons?
Me and a friend are going to Luton airport by National Express coach on Saturday 15 April. The bus I have in mind leaves Finchley Road station at 16:35, arriving at Luton airport at 17:40.
Is this bus likely to be delayed at that time, and if so, by how much?
To clarify, the bus has to arrive at the airport no later than 18:20, or it will be tight for our flight.
Best Answer
An update for the beginning of 2020. The National Express's website says:
For airport journeys we recommend allowing at least 3 hours (180 minutes) between your coach arrival time and scheduled flight.
So 40 minutes margin is certainly too small as per website operators.
