RailAir

RailAir is a luxury coach or bus service that links Heathrow to the national rail network via Reading, Woking or Feltham train stations.

You can buy a combined coach and train ticket to cover your whole journey, but you don’t have to be a rail passenger to use RailAir buses or coaches.

Where to catch RailAir

For a free transfer to Heathrow Central, take the express lift down to the Terminal 5 rail station. Then catch the Heathrow Express to Heathrow Terminals 1,2 and 3 in the central area.
