On days with disrupted rail services, you may find that alternative methods of transport to London Gatwick will be busier than usual and so it is always best to plan well ahead:
By bus and coach
Metrobus offer local bus services around the London Gatwick area, with single fares capped at £2. This includes services to Redhill, where you can catch TfL bus 405 to Croydon and connecting buses or trams to Wimbledon and the District Line. You can buy tickets on board and contactless payment is also widely available.
National Express and The Airline by the Oxford Bus Company offer coach services from both terminals to Oxford, London Victoria Coach Station, Brighton and other destinations across England and Wales. You can use either company’s services to reach London Heathrow T5, where you can catch the Piccadilly or Elizabeth Line into central London.
We highly recommend booking coach tickets in advance of days with disruption as services are likely to sell out quickly.
