July 4 Heathrow

How are you getting to Southampton on July 4?;) :)

6 "classical" options:

 

1. Depending to the shipping line: they provide a transfer from the ship to Heathrow.

 

2. Limo-Service: like http://www.adlg.co.uk/london_search_result.php, http://www.london-airport-transfer.com/tariff.htm

 

3. Car Rental and drive yourself. Check with https://www.hertz.co.uk/rentacar/byr/index.jsp?targetPage=locationView.jsp (offers pick-up from cruise terminal), http://www.avis.co.uk/CarHire/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Southampton/Southampton-Dock-Gate-8 (Gate 8 = City Cruise Terminal), http://www.europcar.co.uk/rental-stations/southampton-car-hire/southampton-location-map.htm, http://www.nationalcar.co.uk/ukweb/branch_locator/detail.jsp?area=England&branch=Southampton

 

4. Get a taxi to Southampton Coach Station. Use the direct bus to Heathrow. Check with http://www.nationalexpress.com

 

5. Get a taxi to Southampton Central Station. Use the train to Woking. From there is an airport shuttle available. Check with http://www.southwesttrains.co.uk

 

6. Get a taxi to the airport. Use a flight via Manchester (British Airways) or Paris (Air France) to London Heathrow. Check with http://www.southamptonairport.com/.

 

By the way: Jul 4 is nothing special - It's a normal Wednesday. We do not celebrate the US holidays here!

Sorry - I responded for Southampton to Heathrow instead v.v.

 

But I am sure you can use the information as well.

 

I was making my researches for Southampton to Heathrow when your posting came in.

Thanks all, but I would like to communicate with an individual or two that will be doing this route on July 4

July 4th is an American holiday...the other poster gave you some good suggestions.

In which case, this is probably the wrong place to do it.

 

The posting guidelines for this forum say:-

Shore Excursion Shares

Posts looking for members to "share" your excursion, or posts mentioning that a few more spaces in a van are available and you should contact so and so, are not allowed. Please use the ROLL CALL thread for your ship’s sailing to find others willing to share your shore excursion tour costs.

This is applied to transfers as well as conventional shore excursions.

 

And there is no need to shout in red.
