Getting the train to Luton Airport

How do I buy a train ticket for Luton Airport?

You can buy your train tickets in all the normal ways, but we recommend buying your tickets online in advance. This way you can:

• Skip the station ticket queues and give yourself more time in the departure lounge
• Save extra money for souvenirs with no booking fees
• Collect your tickets from any station in the UK
• Buy a ‘through ticket’ to the airport including the shuttle bus by selecting ‘Luton Airport’ as your destination when you book

Need to pay for the shuttle bus? You can pay with Contactless on our shuttle bus

If you only have a ticket to Luton Airport Parkway or don’t have a through ticket from the airport – it’s now quicker and easier than ever to pay with contactless on our shuttle bus. When you board the bus, simply touch your contactless card or device on the reader to pay the single fare* to or from the airport.

Ask the driver if you need a different ticket or need to pay for more than one person.

*One journey payment per card/device accepted. Journeys between Luton Airport Parkway- Luton Airport only
