  Even 100 pts/£ not using this ripp off train, wonder how many travellers they lost since Lizzy start operating, just by watching the amount of passengers who keep waiting when HExpress arrive on platform gives an idea.

    At 100/pts/£ you would be rather foolish not to use the service as you would effectively be buying Avios for less than 0.5p per Avios.
    At this offer it is still worth it if you have your plans firmly set far enough in advance. Advance tickets can be as low as £11, which is lower than the cost of the Elizabeth line. Booking that far ahead would mean you save £1.50 and get 275 Avios comparatively free.

      What would be foolish is dragging my luggage from Hammersmith all the way to Paddington to get another train when I can go directly to Heathrow.

    Think you need to check your points strategy – 100 Heathrow Rewards pts/£ would be compelling for me, even if I had no HEX journeys planned!

    More seriously, HEX still offers good value on Advance tickets, cheaper than the Lizzie line. Sadly they’ve realised that and blocked the promo for Advance tickets.

      100 Heathrow Rewards per £ would be a 100% rebate….

        200% on car parking – so pay for your airport parking in HEX tickets you don’t need 😀

    If anyone in this world was giving 100 pts/£, their portal would crash due to demand. HExpress seems to have its audience sorted, there are people who will always want choice, same way people pay for Premium Economy vs Economy even though they are going to the same destination in the same plane!

    We just got back from SFO and one of my sons went free as under 15 and the other now 16 used his rail card. It only cost about £15 or all four of us. Agree with the above about booking early.

  the Lizzie line now takes only 8 minutes more than the express to T5, (21 V 29 min) since the new timetable speeded up the service, and skips places like Southall.
  the fare is less than half (£12 V 25), and it takes you directly to the heart of town…

    Home isn’t where the heart is

  Not very clear from their T&Cs, but I’m guessing this won’t work with the DUOSAVER code that I use quite a lot? I’m usually not organised enough to book 3 months in advance.

• Tim says:

  I have found £5.50 fares and others much less than the Lizzy Line online even 2 weeks before travel dates. Think you just need to book at the time of flight bookings for bargains.

  • Andrew says:

    Exactly this. Plus, with children, don’t forget children travel free.

    We’ve managed to book one adult and one child for a total of £3.65 each way (with a railcard discount).

    Given one child is now 11 and so doesn’t travel free on TfL services, this makes it much, much cheaper than the Elizabeth or Piccadilly Lines.

    Obviously this doesn’t qualify for the 25x points offer but it’s already cheap enough!

  We usually take advantage of the BA baggage allowance in Club so the Elizabeth Line would be painful at peak times

  • apbj says:

    I commute on the Elizabeth line and the amount of luggage in the morning has to be seen to be believed. LHR passengers board first and have the pick of the seats so the only pain is felt by the rest of us trying to squeeze into standing space further down the line. You might as well take advantage! (LHR passengers pay more, so I don’t begrudge it, just saying it’s entirely doable with big bags…)

  So you can get 25 Avios for £1? That to me seems like a bargain. I’ll be buying a couple of their first class tickets just for the point. Seems like an easy way to top up a few thousand Avios to me!

    Interesting offer this, tempted to buy tickets to increase my flying club balance

  • Chrisasaurus says:

    Erm. 25 Avios for £1 is 4p per Avios I wouldn’t be buying tickets just for the Avios…
