We were late so waited for bus at Thornhill Park & ride. Airline Bus service was/had been busy, didn’t even bother to stop at Thornhill. We had to take taxi to Heathrow instead.

Advice is to arrive at least 15 minutes before departure time. Unsure of time delays, I was there 30 minutes beforehand. Passengers were left standing in the cold morning air until 5 minutes before the departure time. Then the driver appeared and was loaded. We actually left five minutes late. The driver was brusque and a little belligerent. An essential service which many passengers are encountering for the first time. They may have English as a second language. The driving was fine, but the attitude towards the people it serves needs improving.

The driver was helpful and courteous and the bus was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately we were about 20 minutes late in leaving and then ran into horrendous traffic caused by an accident on the M40. Nothing to do with the driver, of course, who sought out alternative routes on smaller roads, and kept us informed of the ever-increasing delay.
