Hi all.
I'm flying into London Heathrow (Terminal 5) landing at about 17:00 on Friday 6th November. I need to be in Penzance by 10:00 the following morning but would ideally arrive on the 00:40 service.
I've only flown into Heathrow a few times and I've only then travelled east by rail (Paddington; Piccadilly line). It looks like I'll have to be fairly swift (and hope the flight's not delayed) but there's potential to hop on a Railair coach at 18:25 and join the last daytime Penzance train at Reading. Otherwise I'll perhaps have to risk a seated coach on the Sleeper.
Can anyone recommend alternatives? I've a 16-25 railcard.
Is there a big saving getting the combined rail-and-coach fare for £48.20 or other connecting coach companies worth looking into?
Much obliged - cheers!
