Flying from London Stansted

The Stansted Express runs to Liverpool Street in 47 minutes; the airport sits 34 miles northeast of central London. Fares from Stansted are typically the cheapest of the London airports, especially on Eastern European, Italian and Iberian routes — the trade-off is fewer full-service options and a longer ground transfer at both ends.
