And yet it's ranked the worst in the UK. The Indy survey published their methodology
Methodology: we chose the leading form of transport from the airport to the city; usually the fastest (a train where one is available) but in the case of Heathrow, the Tube.
We also examined the average journey time and departure schedule during the middle of the day; in cases such as Manchester and Gatwick, where there are multiple options, we chose fast services. We obtained the standard daytime fare, off-peak where avaulable. Then we multiplied the time, in minutes, by the average gap between services, in minutes, and by the fare, in pounds
It's a problem all the time, not just in the mornings and late evenings...acorrding to the survey.
