National Express Dot2Dot is Heading Upwards and Eastwards
LONDON, July 29 /PRNewswire/ -- National Express has today launched a brand new service integrating its rail and airport shuttle businesses to make the journey from Central London to Heathrow Airport simpler. Passengers travelling on the company's East Anglia train services into London's Liverpool Street station will be able to pre-book a seat on the National Express Dot2Dot the innovative, on-demand airport shuttle service, for a more convenient and direct transfer across London. The new Liverpool Street service joins the Dot2Dot route already linking London King's Cross with Heathrow Airport, providing an easy link for rail passengers using National Express East Coast services to and from the East Midlands, Yorkshire, North East England and Scotland. Operating as an on-demand service, passengers who arrive in either station will be able to use the direct service to every terminal at Heathrow Airport 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Paul Whitfield, managing director of Dot2Dot said, "Our intention at Dot2Dot has always been to simplify the journey across London for the millions of passengers travelling to and from Heathrow. It's great that we can now extend this service to anybody coming in to Liverpool Street, as well as King's Cross, and give our customers a joined up and more comfortable way of travelling across London to one of the world's busiest airports," A journey between King's Cross or Liverpool Street station and London Heathrow costs a maximum of GBP20 per person with discounts for groups and return journeys - less than half the cost of a taxi and considerably more convenient. Each shuttle is capable of carrying between ten and twelve passengers in comfort and style. Serving all terminals at Heathrow, the Dot2Dot shuttle offers a more responsible travel choice to its passengers. Each shuttle complies with EU Emission standards and by sharing a single journey with up to nine other travellers this will help reduce an individual's carbon footprint. Each of Dot2Dot's luxury shuttles has spacious leather seats, air conditioning, and lots of room for baggage to ensure that the journey is stress free and comfortable. The company is currently installing free Wi-Fi across the fleet. For further information visit http://www.dot2.com or for reservations Call +44(0)871-265-2-368.
