From O2 to London Stansted

Hi all

Me and my girlfriend have to be on a plane from London Stansted to Denmark at 0650 sunday morning after the Saturday evening concert (and aftershow)

I'm trying to figure out how that's going to be possible confused

So far I've found out that there's a bus from Victoria Coach Station to the airport which operates every 30 minutes 7 days a week.

Anyone know how it's possible to get from O2 (Indigo2) to Victoria Coach Station in the middle of the night?

Or anyone have any better ideas for transportation?

I would be very happy for any feedback.

Thanks in advance

Heres what I would do...

Chill at the aftershow until about 3.30-3.45

Come out of the aftershow an head to the dock next door to take the Thames clipper boat. This is supposed to run all night for £4. Everyone has been saying how good this is.

You can get off at London Bridge. From there, its a one mile walk north to Liverpool Street Sation.

Once at Liverpool Street station, you can get a direct train to Stansted Airport. It takes 45 minutes on the train, you will need to take either the 04.30am, the 4.55am, or the 5.25.

The train Arrives at Stansted right in the terminal!

Or you can do as directed below, get the boat to Westminster, and then it's about a 10 minute walk down one road from Westminster to Victoria where you can get your coach.

There you go Amor.

Unless you get a taxi, the boat is your best way out. Simply decide whether you want to take the bus or train, that will effect where you get off the boat.

The bus is £9 cheaper, but the train is 30 minutes faster.

If you choose the bus, make sure your ticket is flexible. With the train, you can just pay at the machine and walk on.

That's what I did after the indigo at the opening night (aug 01):

I took the N108 bus from the o2 to Stratford (2GBP)
At Stratford I took the A9 coach (National Express) to Stansted Airport (8GBP)

Was good.
