Where can you get non-stop flights to Heathrow from?

As London, England, is quite a ways away from Malaysia, there are no direct flights to Heathrow (LHR), but one stopover along the way at a duty-free shopping mecca like Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) or Doha International Airport (DOH) shouldn’t be too taxing.

How do you get from the Heathrow Airport to the centre of London?

From Heathrow to central London, you have many transport options. The fastest two are the Paddington Heathrow Express train and a private transfer or taxi. The Express is a non-stop 15min train ride to central London’s Paddington station and costs about RM 212 for a return. If you are travelling with two or more people, you may find it easier to organise a private transfer through the airport’s website or grab a taxi. These will set you back around RM 345-460. The TFL train has the same route as the Express but takes 30min and costs a bit less. There is also the London Underground (metro), which Londoners call the ‘Tube’. It has a 45-60-min travel time and many stops along the way but goes straight through central London. TFL operates the train and metro, so you can get an Oyster card to top up and use on both.

What are some things to do in London?

London is an exciting city to visit. If you enjoy shopping, you have every option from high-street shopping on Oxford Street to the off-beat markets of Camden and Portobello Road. If you’re a royalist, tourist attractions steeped in royal history include London Bridge, the Tower of London (housing the crown jewels), and Buckingham Palace, where you may even be lucky enough to visit when the royals are in residence. You are not likely to get near to them, though, thanks to the Queen's Guard dressed in their traditional red jackets and black bearskin hats. If you are in the mood for a debate, head to Speaker’s Corner in Hyde Park, where locals climb up on soapboxes and air their views on politics, religion, and everything else. From June to July, you can catch a game of tennis at the Championships at Wimbledon. Or take a stroll through the stalls of Covent Garden and then ride on the London Eye observation wheel in the evening to get a beautiful panorama of the city and the River Thames. That’s just a taste of what you can see and do. London truly has something for everyone.
