The usual route is the A2500, A249, M2, A2, Dartford Crossing (A282), M25, M11 and A120. Because it crosses the Thames at Dartford, timing matters: queues build quickly at busy times, so we always build in a margin.
Stansted has a single terminal, which keeps things simple once you arrive. The variable is the Dartford Crossing: on a clear run it's quick, but queues at busy times can add a lot, so we always build in a margin.
