Luton Airport and Heathrow Airport
Luton and Heathrow are the main international airports in London. Many travellers have connecting flights between Luton and Heathrow. Due to busy schedules, you need a reliable transfer between these two airports. Choosing the right transfer is essential for peace of mind. TappAXI specialises in Luton to Heathrow Airport taxi service, providing smooth, direct, and stress-free journeys between these major travel hubs.
Luton Airport (LTN)
London Luton is the fifth busiest airport in the UK, serving over 16 million passengers annually. Located about 34 miles (55 km) north of Central London, Luton is well-connected to the city. It is a popular choice for European and domestic flights, especially with budget airlines.
Luton Airport has a single terminal that is easy to navigate and equipped with shops, lounges, and restaurants. For travellers with connecting flights, a direct taxi is the easiest and most reliable option. With TappAXI, you can save time and be sure of a hassle-free Luton to Heathrow airport transfer. Your driver will meet you at your terminal, assist with your luggage, and take you directly to your next airport on time.
Heathrow Airport (LHR)
London Heathrow is the UK’s largest and busiest airport. Heathrow handles more than 80 million passengers per year. Situated about 14 miles west of Central London, Heathrow is a global hub for long-haul and international flights (especially for British Airways).
Heathrow has five passenger terminals (T2, T3, T4, and T5 in use), each offering world-class facilities, from shopping and dining to premium lounges. With TappAXI, your driver knows each terminal layout and drop-off points. We are ensuring convenient and timely pickups and a hassle-free journey.

Compare LHR ⇄ LTN Transfer Options (Taxi vs Coach vs Train)
Whenever you’re travelling between Luton and Heathrow Airport, you have three main choices: a private taxi, a National Express coach, or a train with London connections. Each option differs in time, cost, and convenience. Here’s a clear comparison:
Private Taxi
A private taxi is the fastest and most direct option, taking around 40 to 55 minutes depending on traffic. Your driver will pick you up directly from the Luton terminal and drop you at the exact Heathrow terminal entrance. This makes it perfect for tight flight connections, families with children, or travellers with heavy luggage. The fare for Luton Airport taxi is charged per vehicle rather than per person, which can make it more cost-effective when larger vehicles and travelling with groups. With TappAXI, you can expect a smooth, reliable, and stress-free transfer every time.
Bus + Coach
The National Express coach provides the only direct public transport between Luton and Heathrow. The journey usually takes between 70 to 90 minutes, depending on traffic. The fare starts from 15 to 25 pounds per person. Coaches operate on fixed timetables, so travellers must plan around scheduled departures, which can be less flexible. Although it is a cheaper choice, but the ride is less comfortable than a private taxi, especially if you are carrying multiple bags or travelling during peak times.
Train
The train and Underground route is another possibility, though there is no direct service between the two airports. Passengers take Thameslink from Luton Airport Parkway to London St Pancras, then transfer to the Underground or Elizabeth Line to reach Heathrow. This journey can take over ninety minutes and often costs between 20 to 40 pounds per person. While trains run frequently, the route requires at least two changes and involves managing luggage across busy stations. For many travellers, this can be a difficult and stressful experience, especially after or before a long flight.
Overall, public transport options are useful for solo budget travellers, but for those who value time, comfort, and a straightforward connection, a Luton to Heathrow airport taxi remains the most convenient and dependable way to travel. Here is a comparison table summarising travel time, cost, merits, and demerits of Taxi vs Coach vs Train
| Transfer Mode | Travel Time (approx) | Cost (approx) | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Taxi (Private Car) |
~40-55 minutes | ~£64+ per car (fixed rate) |
|
|
Coach (Airport Bus) |
~70–90 minutes | ~£15–£25 per person |
|
|
Train (Rail & Tube) |
~90-120 minutes or more | ~£20–£40 per person |

Route & Average Travel Time Heathrow - Luton Airport
The distance between Heathrow and Luton Airport is around 34–36 miles (55–58 km) by the most direct motorway route via the M1 and M25. Depending on traffic and route choices, this can extend slightly, especially if diversions are needed around busy junctions.
On average, a taxi ride takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour in normal conditions. In light traffic, such as late evenings or early mornings, the journey can be as quick as 40–50 minutes. However, it is safer to allow up to 75–90 minutes, as both the M1 and M25 are prone to congestion.
Our experienced drivers monitor live traffic throughout your journey. If there are delays caused by accidents, roadworks, or heavy congestion, they will adapt and choose the fastest available route. Even if this means a slightly longer distance, our goal is always to get you from Heathrow to Luton on time.
Why Booking Taxi With TaapAXI is the Smart Choice?
There is no direct train service between Luton and Heathrow. Travelling by public transport requires at least two changes (Thameslink → Underground or Elizabeth Line → Heathrow), which can be tiring with luggage. Coaches provide a direct service but run on fixed timetables and usually take longer.
With TappAXI, you get a private, direct, airport-to-airport transfer. Your driver meets you at Luton Arrivals or your chosen pickup point and drops you directly at the right Heathrow terminal entrance (T2, T3, T4, or T5), or the other destination.
This makes a taxi the most reliable, comfortable, and predictable way to travel between the two airports. You can relax, catch up on emails, or simply prepare for your next flight while we take care of the roads
