The Gatwick Express only goes from London Victoria to Gatwick Airport—and back again. It’s the definition of a point-to-point service, like a straight line drawn by a very impatient commuter.
If you’re at Paddington, Liverpool Street, or King’s Cross, you can’t just wander onto a Gatwick Express. You’ll need to take the Tube, a bus, or another train to Victoria first. Sorry, no magic carpet service—yet.
But here’s the beauty of it: once you’re at Victoria, you don’t have to think. Just follow the giant signs that scream “GATWICK EXPRESS” in bright orange and yellow. It’s like the airport itself sent a personal invitation.
