Title: Fao London Alty types re Ebbsfleet away
Post by: Ballers on March 25, 2009, 08:11:01 PM

Seeing as time off work is looking unlikely at the moment, how long does it take to get from London City airport to Ebbsfleet? How hard is it to do so? And do any of you lot depart from that area of London? I understand it's other side of Thames.

Bit of a struggle making it altho there is a flight from manchest at 16.35 (get to LCY 17.50) for £70 which may be a possibility, jus thinking ahead like .

You might just make it if you don't get any delays. The journey from City airport will take about an hour. You need to get the Docklands Railway to Woolwich Arsenal DLR, walk to Woolwich Arsenal mainline station and get a train to Dartford then another train to Northfleet Coopers Arms. You will be able to enjoy the delights of London public transport in rush hour. The London transport site has maps, a journey planner and timetables. Good luck.

Ballers,

Get the DLR to Woolwich and I'll give you a lift from there.

Right, let me see. I've got to somewhow wrangle it with school. I think I said that about 18 years ago as well.
