Travel between Central London and Luton Airport with full flexibility. While the express service runs directly from London St Pancras International, your ticket also gives you the freedom to travel to and from any of London’s key Thameslink stations, including Farringdon, City Thameslink, Blackfriars, Elephant & Castle, and London Bridge. Whichever station you choose, you will enjoy a smooth connection to Luton Airport Parkway followed by a quick transfer on the 24-hour Luton DART shuttle straight to the terminal doors.
Enjoy a total journey time of as little as 32 minutes (a 21-minute train ride to the station plus a 4-minute shuttle ride). Trains run roughly every 30 minutes throughout the day (up to 34 trains per day).
Travel with a combined train and Luton DART ticket for a seamless transfer. Enjoy full flexibility to travel at any hour with an Anytime ticket.
On weekdays, the first train departs London at 5:45 AM, and the last leaves at 11:54 PM. On weekends, the first train is at 5:33 AM, and the last is at 10:18 PM. The Luton DART shuttle operates 24 hours a day.
Bring up to 3 items of luggage (2 large suitcases and 1 small bag). Overhead racks and suitcase spaces are available. Enjoy complimentary 4G Wi-Fi, toilets with baby-changing areas, and dedicated spaces for wheelchairs. Folding bikes are allowed. Up to two well-behaved dogs can travel free of charge on a lead. Other small pets must be kept in enclosed rigid carriers.
Take advantage of step-free access, boarding ramps, and priority spacing. Passengers travelling for international flights should aim to arrive at London St Pancras International around 3 hours before flight departure to safely account for tube transfers, the 32-minute train/DART journey, baggage drop, and security check lines. Add an extra 30–60 minutes during peak holiday periods.
For passengers arriving at London King's Cross, there is no direct train, but it is less than a 5-minute walk to St Pancras International to catch the service.
