By public transport: Elizabeth line to Farringdon, then Thameslink to Gatwick, about 85–100 min. The catch is a long ride and a change with luggage. A car does the whole trip door to door in about 40 min, or 65 min when the roads are full, with your bags in the boot.

The M25 around Heathrow is the stretch to watch. For European flights, a pickup two and a half hours before departure is usually right.
Check-in guide for Gatwick Airport: two and a half to three hours for long-haul, two hours for Europe. Add 40 to 65 minutes on the road and a small margin, and the booking page suggests a pickup time for your flight.
Southall is one of London's liveliest South Asian centres, with the shops and restaurants of The Broadway and King Street, the Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha, the market, Southall Park and the quieter streets of Norwood Green and Dormers Wells.
The Broadway is very busy with buses and shoppers. For addresses on or near it, we pick up on a side street, and the driver calls when outside.
We also cover nearby Hanwell, Norwood Green, Hayes, Greenford, Heston, Dormers Wells, Cranford and Osterley.
Local tip: The car goes round London on the M25, while the train goes through it. From Southall, the car is usually twice as quick.
