Heathrow has no direct train or coach from Salisbury. Most people change at Woking, Reading or Basingstoke with their cases, or drive and pay to park. A shared shuttle takes you from the station to the terminal door, and the more people share it, the less you each pay.

Bus, coach, train or shuttle?

There’s no direct bus or coach from Salisbury to Heathrow: local buses take over 3 hours with at least one change, and the National Express coach to Heathrow doesn’t stop in Salisbury.
Our shared shuttle bus, an 8 seater minibus, runs from Salisbury station straight to your terminal in about 1h 45m.

What if nobody else books my shuttle?

If you start one less than 24 hours before, we hold the whole vehicle price, £206.75, from the start. Either way, each person who joins lowers your price, and we refund the difference.
