Luton is sh*t but it has Frank & Bennies which is better than the food places in most airports

Punk IPA and a local sussex pale ale on tap.  Dark Star? Gatwick is hell, the worst of the worst, an overpriced and awful quality chicken and chips won't save it. I recommend a trip to nearby Crawley, a beautiful place, even by English big town standards. na, a lighter drop. i was just impressed to see a local pint on tap in what is essentially a sole-less existence of a shopping center. as i unfortunately have to fly very regularly, it's the small things that make the experience manageable. the surrounding area is actually very nice. within about half an hour you have some of my favouite english towns in the south downs. that rymed. gatwick also has the gatwick express making it the only easily accessible london airport (bar heathrow - which isn't great either).

You don't need the Gatwick Express.... it's too expensive and barely quicker than the trains to London Bridge and St Pancras. 33 minutes to Gatwick for £19.90 or 32 minutes to London Bridge for £10.30. Obvious choice really.

Luton is the worst though, especially with the poxy bus to the train station.

If cityjet isn't a decent price, then Birmingham is among the better options from London (even if it isn't a brilliant airport), if you are coming from Euston or anywhere in the North of London where you are coming via Euston. Advance train fares are so cheap there and it takes under an hour and a half, plus flights are much, much cheaper to Dublin. The total cost including transport to Birmingham is often much better than any of the London options.
