Getting from London Euston to Heathrow bath road advice
Hi
We are four adults with large suitcases travelling from Birmingham to Heathrow by probably train, I have booked an overnight stay at the travel lodge bath road . For those that use the train is it easy to get from Euston to Heathrow with cases on the tube? Does anyone else know of any other options ? I don’t really want to pay for an Uber or taxi. Thanks in advance |

A few ways to go. The piccidilly line goes to Heathrow, so from Euston you would need to get Northern or Victoria line to join up as one of the the joint stations (Kings Cross, Leicester Square or St James Park all work). Its a few escalators down at Euston and pretty hot. Very crowded in rush hour and also very hot.
Or walk around corner from Euston and go to Euston Square and then get train to Paddington, then heathrow express. Just under the surface so not so hot. Or get off at Watford Junction and get green line bus to heathrow (724) runs once an hour. There used to be a virgin bus also, but I think that has now stopped. |

I live in north London and use the Piccadilly line every to commute to and from work and I can tell you tourists makeup a large percentage of the users and it’s crowded and awkward if you’ve got suitcases. The journey time from Euston to Heathrow by tube is 50 mins.
I were you I’d get a cab from Euston station to Paddington Station and then get the Heathrow Express from there. It’ll be a MUCH more comfortable journey and the journey time is only 15 mins.

Thankyou for your replies , i was worried about taking the suitcases on the tube , especially managing the escalators. I’ll look into if any coaches are available too and I will price it up for the tube ,Heathrow express and Uber

Travelled Euston to the PI on Bath Road many times. I could not be bothered with suitcases on/off tube. We book a car with Blackberry cars, excellent service. £30 when there's 2 of us and (I think) £35 when 3 of us so need larger car.

Yes, pre book, we usually pay the driver but you can pay via website. I've had to ring them to change arrival time due to train delay and it was no problem. Usually get a text 30 mins beforehand with driver/car details. Sometimes the drivers ring themselves also.

Thankyou this is definitely a better option, which I’ll be booking. I’ve taken a look £35 for an estate the same price for the Heathrow express and less hassle.
