Question 9

What are the benefits of the different airports in London and Portland?

Accepted Answer

Heathrow is beneficial if you’re looking for the greatest selection of Atlantic crossings and also for its great road and rail connectivity, but remember this is a big and busy international airport, so expect huge crowds of people and lots of queues. Heathrow is to the west of London, so if you’re coming from Wales or the west of England, it may be a good choice. Gatwick is to the south of London, if you’re coming up from the coast or you’re in the southern part of Greater London. Southend is off to the east. Stansted and Luton are both to the north of the British capital, so if you’re coming from northern England or Scotland, then those airports may suit your needs best. London City Airport is located at Canary Wharf, which is the closest airport to the old city and also the financial hub of London, if you’re a businessman in a hurry to find flights from London to Portland.

Question 10

What is the best way to get in and out of airports in London and Portland?

Accepted Answer

Practically, only Heathrow and Gatwick offer flights from London to Portland, mostly via New York. London’s four other airports – Stansted (STN), Luton (LTN), City (LCY) and Southend (SEN) – are thus not relevant to this discussion, unless your aim is to take a low-cost flight from one of these airports to another part of Europe and then do the long-haul flight to New York, Boston, Washington or Philadelphia, connecting to Portland from there. For this reason, this article is limited to Heathrow and Gatwick. Heathrow is London’s main airport and is very well connected as regards road and rail. The London Orbital motorway, the M25, intersects with the M4 at a systems interchange right near the airport, making Heathrow instantly accessible to all of London and the South-East. Heathrow’s Piccadilly Line connection to the city on the London Underground, together with the speedy Heathrow Express, make this airport a friendly choice in terms of connectivity. Gatwick also enjoys good road and rail connections to central London. Portland’s only major airport, the Portland International Jetport (PWM), offers good road connections on the I-95 and I-295 interstate freeways, as well as a bus connection to the city.

Which cities can you get to from Portland International Jetport?

Portland’s airport gives you access to the whole north-eastern part of the United States and New England, as well as Canada. Just southwest of Portland, you can visit Oregon Coast Aquarium, try Local Ocean Seafoods and visit Newport (Oregon). How about hiring a car and taking in all the sites of this part of the world?

Question 11

Which airlines fly direct from London to Portland, Maine?

Accepted Answer

There are neither direct nor non-stop flights from London to Portland, owing to the fact that the US East Coast is already so well connected to the UK, and Portland is a small city. Flights from London to Portland, therefore, will take in at least one stop, maybe even two or three. A good option to consider for London to Portland flights is to stop in the New York area and then connect to Portland from there. British Airways, Delta and American Airlines all offer service from London Heathrow (LHR) to John F Kennedy International Airport in New York (JFK), while United flies from Heathrow to Newark Liberty International Airport in Newark (EWR), which is also a New York area airport. Delta Connection offers flights to Portland from New York JFK and also from New York La Guardia (LGA), though this would mean a land transfer from JFK to La Guardia. Even if you’re looking for cheap flights from London to Portland, or one-way flights from London to Portland, it is advisable to transfer out of the same airport you flew into, making the JFK-LGA ground connection unnecessary. You could also connect on American Airlines from Heathrow to Philadelphia and then onto Portland, as American Airlines flies from London to Philly and then also to Portland. The advantage of this is that you can book all your flights with a single airline. JetBlue offers flights from London Gatwick (LGW) to JFK, but their connection onto Portland is seasonal, so you would need to check with the airline before you finalise your booking. Most flights from London’s other airports only connect to Europe, not the United States.

Accepted Answer

We always recommend checking with the individual airline you are booking with to travel from London to Portland Airport.

Question 15

What documentation or ID do you need to fly to Portland Airport?

Accepted Answer
