    Heathrow Connect

    Really convenient train between Heathrow and Paddington station that I wish I'd known about several…read moreyears ago! I'm not sure if this is advertised a lot or that many people know of it. There's the Heathrow Express, which is advertised at the airport and station a lot more clearly than its sister the Connect. The Express goes directly from the airport to Paddington and takes roughly 15 minutes, whereas Connect stops at multiple stations, picking up people/dropping them off along the way. Follow the signs for the Express, and you'll be just about where you need to be for the Connect. The trains are clean and you're not dealing with the general crowds of the London tube, so it's a relief when you're carrying luggage and just want to sit back and relax a bit after/before a flight and during the commute. I decided to give both a try to see how they compare with each other, and I'm glad I did. The Heathrow Express is even nicer, but that's also reflected in the price tag of 22 pounds; the Connect is about half that price, but also takes about twice as long. Either way though, you'll have to drag and carry your luggage around a bit to get to the platforms, but it's not as extensive as taking the tube and carrying them around flights of stairs. If you're traveling solo, both the Express and Connect are the better financial options over hailing a cab to central London. However, if you're in a group, hailing a cab and dividing the fair could still be the most convenient and worth it.

    My wallet and I feel much better taking Heathrow Connect, than its brother Heathrow Express: it's…read moreroughly half the price, but also half as quick - a trade-off that I'm willing to do more often than not. (Being German, I'm way early anyway, so I can comfortable squeeze in that extra 15 minutes.) Both Heathrow Express and Heathrow Connect leave from Paddington Station. Yet while the former is very easy to find, the latter is less obviously advertised throughout the station. Let me tell you where to find it: Platform 12! Make sure you get the tickets before heading to the platform though - you can buy them from the normal National Rail ticket machines. Life in the fast lane - not always my preferred choice!

    I was in charge of organising my best friends hen do, as Bridesmiad, and my plans were to go to…read moreLondon for dinner and theatre. I wanted to add to the night by having a fun and comfortable way to travel. When I looked into dozens of limo companies, most were rude, short, over-priced and or inflexible. One in particular had about 3 websites under different names but when I called they were the same company. I thought I had found a good one with A1 Limos until I decided to check their reviews and found some really awful, scary reviews and quickly decided to keep looking. I decided to use a website that would get any limo companies to contact you if they had what you wanted based on what you entered in on the site. Only 2 companies replied. Moonlight and one other. The other had a very weird and rude reply of "You're better off going to Brighton, their drinks don't cost the earth compared to London!" Or something along those lines. I found this out of order and strange, as I was not planning on going to a club or bar where drink prices would need to be an issue and my plans would not be based on drink prices anyways and Brighton was not showing The Bodyguard musical, so this was completely silly. I was not going to suddenly change all my months of planning just because of some random limo company! When Alan at Moonlight replied to me, he was polite and replied quickly. I think I sent out my request quite late in the day and he replied that night via email. He had a can-do attitude, good prices and answered all my questions when I would email him back and forth. I emailed him, called him quite a lot and he never got annoyed by my endless questions. He always replied quickly, politely and was happy with anything I requested. He even sent me pics via email of his new party bus vehicle, as they were not on the website yet, in order to help me to decide on which vehicle to choose. He was never pushy or biased and advised me politely when ever I asked for his opinion. Even though there were not any reviews of Moonlight online, because of Alan's polite and continuous help through correspondence, I had a good feeling about them and so I went with them and I was so glad I did! On the day, there was a massive traffic accident around the area of the pick up point and even though I left home 2 hours earlier than pick up time, it took me all of that 2 hours to make it in from my home to pick up point, when it should have taken me 20 minutes! It was very stressful. Alan called me when I was stuck in traffic and asked if there was any changes I would like to make to the 2nd pick up point because of the traffic, and was really understanding when I said I wanted it to stay the same, even if it meant we would be late, because I wanted to surprise the Bride to be. Alan was on time and I was late and Alan waited about 30 mins I think and when I got to him I apologised and he smiled and said it was fine and was so calm and zen! He carried on with his duties happily and calmly. The bus impressed everyone, it was clean and equipped and really fun. Alan would put the music up or down when asked and offered to stop for us to have a toilet break halfway to London. When we got to London, Alan directed us to where we had to get to and when we were ready to be picked up, I called him and he came to us within a few minutes. He was always smiling, calm and ready at the bus door when we were getting in and out. He was smartly dressed and groomed and very professional. He just seemed to enjoy what he was doing and just quietly went about his duties for us. Everyone in the party said he was lovely. I was so glad I chose Moonlight limos, Alan was just what we needed, secure, calm and efficient. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I could not have asked for better service.
