6 am flights from Stansted?

[utagaura]

Last year there were flights leaving in the afternoon from Gatwick, but this year easyjet only has them at 6 am from stansted or late at night from gatwick.

How do you get to stanstead that early in the morning? trains don't appear to be running until after 5?

Anyone remember if they brought out the afternoon flights later last year, because they don't appear to be there at all , from any airport

My lovely b/friend drives us there

The Stansted Express doesn't run thru the night but I think coaches run thru-out the night from Liverpool St to Stansted, it's whether you can be arsed to sit on a coach for godknowshowlong

Last year Stansted just did 2 flights a day with Easyjet - the one leaving Stansted at 6am and one leaving Stansted at about 6pm.

lucky you with your chauffeur!! I have family in bromley area so I always stay with them, so its a pain in the arse to get up to Liverpool street at anytime.. but this year I don't see any Gatwick sensible-afternoon flights.. so easy to get to gatwick from there

It doesn't fly everyday but there is def a Thomson flights at about 10.00 from Gatwick to Ibiza on Saturdays.

I drive and park there. It's a bit of a nightmare getting up so early even though I'm only half an hour away but at least you get the full day there.

I'm definitely with you on that one, I'd much rather get up at 3am and drive to Stansted and be in Ibiza for 9am and have a full day there than be hanging around at home all day waiting for a later flight

roads are dead on way to stansted before 6am, and shouldnt take more than an hour on a coach from liv st.

the trains up this way are a mess at the mo - shortage of drivers or something.

Gives you more time to try and crawl through that 'mouse hole' in DC10, eh?

 

[utagaura]

yeah I can't find the saturday flights..
anyway I noticed stansted does have a flight leaving at about 6 pm in the evening.. but like barbie said, I'd rather have an extra day in Ibiza (certainly a lot better than beckenham.. har har!)

would be very nice to know if gatwick just brings out those handy afternoon flights later...

yeah I can't find the saturday flights..

Link doesn't seem to work, go to www.thomsonfly.com and go into Timetable and then put in London Gatwick to Ibiza and there is a flight that leaves at 09.30 in the morning.
