Santiago to London, UK

[KarliMc]

I have my return flight booked 10 weeks after I get to Europe out of London. I am going to go visit friends in London and I would like to know the easiest way to get from Santiago to London.

Thank you.

Hi! Easyjet fly from Santiago to Gatwick, and Ryanair to Stansted. Vueling fly from La Coruna to Heathrow. I don't think all of these are daily, so what's best will depend on times, dates and where in London you're staying.

The slow way is to walk to Finisterra, then up the coast to join the 'Norte', then the Voie Litoral up the atlantic coast of France, then any of a number of paths towards a ferry port..
Alternatively you can train/bus to Santander and get the ferry to UK, then train.

Try Skyscanner.com or http://www.rome2rio.com/
I would consider airports in Santiago dC, Valladolid, La Coruna , Asturias or Madrid

I flew La Coruna to Heathrow on Vueling. Note that the budget airlines Easyjet and Ryanair have restrictions on baggage and quite a lot of extra charges, which may add to the face price of a ticket (though I must clarify for legal reasons that they are putting measures in place to make pricing clearer and so on). Taking the more romantic train/ferry option is immeasurably more expensive, and takes a lot of organising. Walking would take three months, swimming somewhat longer...
