Transportation from Heathrow to Southampton

Recommended Posts

We are going to be flying into Heathrow in January and traveling down to Southampton to meet the Queen Elizabeth. With the weather that time of the year being unpredictable, we think it might be wise to arrive in Southampton a day before the ship sales.

 

Which leaves us with the following questions: Is there transportation that goes directly from Heathrow to Southampton? Must we go into London to pick up bus/train? If we opt for Cunard provided transportation, will it take us the day before the ship sails?

 

Thank you for any information you can give us.

For the easiest transportation from LHR to Southampton, book a car service. I have used Smiths for Airports (smithsforairports.com) a number of times and have been impressed with them. They will be waiting for you as soon as you clear customs and have your luggage.

 

When I used Smiths in January the cost was £73.

 

I don't think Cunard's transfer will pick you up the day before (and definitely go at least one day early).
