3. TRAVEL IN LONDON

London has 5 main commuter airports, Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stanstead, and City.

Of these, depending on where you are staying, Gatwick could be the most convenient for you. However, one suggestion is that you check the Transport for London Website. This is an extremely helpful tool as it sets out your customised travel options, times, etc, from port to port.

Please note that travel to and from airports can be more or less expensive, and travel times can vary greatly depending on location, time of travel and how much the ticket costs. All airports connect with Central London directly by train. I wouldn't suggest bus travel - you might find it time consuming!


4. ACCOMODATION

As a suggestion is that you book a hotel within walking distance of Waterloo (where the meeting will be held) or within walking distance of a Tube station or Overland Railway station that passes through Waterloo. This will greatly minimise any travel complications to and from hotel and the meeting venue at the King's College London's Waterloo Campus.

It is recommended, once again, is that you use the Transport for London website (see above) to check the convenience of your hotel for travel to and from our Venue.

Here are some accommodation websites you could find helpful:
