Manchester to Gatwick

the.bands · 9 Nov 19, 10:58 PM

Booked from Gatwick next summer and thinking about options to get there from Manchester.

Flying and Train are a complete non starter due to cost (5 adults).

Considering getting the coach to London and then train to Gatwick. Staying in Premier inn Gatwick night before outbound flight so no issues with time/delays.
Advantage is that someone else can do the 4hour drive home and I can get my head down.

Has anyone done this previous?

This is us in 2 weeks! We are in manchester and flying from lgw with ba.
Ive booked national express to gatwick on the day before, staying at hilton garden something over night and fly next morning.
My sister is driving and parking in long stay, she didnt want to take her baby on the coach, and i dont want to drive home 4/5 hrs after a long flight.
Im Hoping its a smooth trip to lgw
