From Orpington (BR5, BR6) the natural line out is the A21 and the A224, joining M23 J9a, then the terminal approach for the last part of the journey. The whole thing runs to about 25.3 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 45 min off-peak becomes 1h 05m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
Meet and greet in the North or South Terminal arrivals hall. North and South terminals are a shuttle apart, so we confirm which one you land at before the day.
