What to expect

Stansted sits north-east of London, so the route from Milton Keynes typically loops around via the M25 and M11 rather than through the city. As with the other longer routes, a fixed price agreed in advance is more predictable than a metered fare, since traffic around the M25 junctions can vary the journey time significantly.
