Is this too weird/undoable? I'm flying from San Diego California to Nice France. The least inexpensive option I've found is to fly British Airways into Gatwick (arrive @ 3:35pm) and then catching another British Airways flight to Nice from Heathrow (departs @7:50pm.) That leaves me about 4-hours to get from LGW to LHR. Is this too crazy? Or is this doable?

Ray, <BR> <BR>Easily doable with time to spare. There is a regular bus that rides between the two airports at, as I recall, about half-hour intervals. It's a pleasant and comfortable ride through beautiful countryside -- we took it in the opposite direction a few years ago. Your travel agent can get the details for you and make a reservation.

You won't need to make a reservation for the bus. British Airways will give you a voucher when you get there and tell you where to catch it.

Hey, thanks for your help! My mind is at ease now. The reason I was initially worried is because a few years ago I had to land in JFK and connect to a flight at EWR (Newark NJ). THAT was a nerve-wracking experience...our bus was caught in massive traffic jams all the way thru! <BR> Thanks again...and happy travels!

I don't know how far you are with reservations, but have you checked into flying London-Nice with one of these CHEAP airlines (some of them fly from Getwick only) like www.virgin-express.com <BR>or <BR>www.europebyair.com <BR>others are RyanAir and EasyJet, not sure if they have flights to Nice. <BR>You may be surprised to get some real cheap air fare, and (at least in Virgin's case, for sure) not having to hassle between 2 airports! <BR>Amik
