Getting to Royal Holloway

Travelling from LT25

If travelling to Royal Holloway from LT25 in Amsterdam the most direct route is to fly from Amsterdam's Schiphol airport to London Heathrow.

Several airlines offer direct flights compatible with leaving Amsterdam after the closing session on the 13th arriving in in plenty of time to check in at the Royal Holloway accomodation e.g.

BMI, British Airways and Lufthansa

The prices for one way flights for the 13/8/08 Amsterdam to LHR booked through www.opodo.co.uk are currently (updated 15/05/08) BA £69, BMI £79, Lufthansa £92.

After this it is a short taxi ride to the campus (12 km), a local taxi firm Gemini Cars 01784 471111 offers very competitive prices.

Bus number 71 leaves from Heathrow Terminal 5 and has a stop at Royal Holloway. This has a frequency of about once an hour with the last bus currently leaving at 21:40 ariving at Royal Holloway 22:08. For latest timetable see bus timetables

Alternative (normally cheaper) flights to London Gatwick ( 60 km ), Southampton ( 90 km ) and London Stansted (110 km) are also available, but these all require a longer more expensive transfer to Royal Holloway.

If there is enough interest we will be able to run a coach from the conference centre in Amsterdam to Royal Holloway, the cost for this will be approx. £40-£50 depending on the number of people wishing to travel by this route. If you wish to travel by coach please contact CMS@rhul.ac.uk to reserve your place.
