Then I plan to take cab to Hub by Premier Inn Westminster Abbey at 21 Tothill St., hopefully about $10 Assuming you're OK rolling your luggage, and taking it on ESCALATORS; just take the Piccadilly Line from the airport to Barons Court, cross platform change to district line and get out at St James Park (100 yds from your hotel); and skip the HEX altogether.

chismrules Posted February 25, 2020 Author #27 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Scottbee about how long would that take, I was under impression with all the stops it would take a long time. Also how much are the lines, do you pay for each one, buy a day pass? We will be there Sun. and Mon. and then Tues. morning take the train down to Southampton. Because of our location, I didn't think we would use the tube much so wasn't going to buy something like an oyster card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not Scottbee, but I can tell you that the Underground route will only take around 10 to 15 minutes longer to St James’s Park (that’s actual travel time, waiting for either a HEX train or the tube can be the determining factor). It does feel a lot longer with all the stops before you get into central London, in my opinion! An Oyster Card is simply a way of storing money to pay for tube journeys, or you can use a contactless debit/credit card. Either way, you are charged per journey (irrespective of changes) and a daily cap applies. By far the easiest for you, in my opinion - you are only charged for the use you make of the transport system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
