Stansted to Kings Cross Station

I have a problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with. I am flying into Stansted Airport and I need to get from there to Kings Cross Station with in a couple of hours. What's the easiest/best/fastest way to do this? Please help! Thanks!

Standsted Express to Liverpool St. King's Cross is three subway stops from Liverpool St. via Circle, Metropolitan or Hammersmith & City lines.

Hi Adeline,

Just to expand on what rkkwan has told you, the Stansted Express railway station is actually inside the Airport. The trains leave every 15 minutes & it takes about 45 minutes to get to London Liverpool St. You can find more details at;

I've used it & it's an excellent connection.

It's easier to change at Tottenham Hale from Stansted Express to Victoria line underground (direct to Kings X). Just a simple change of platforms. You can buy a through ticket at Stansted. At Liverpool St, you have to walk across the concourse, walk down or use escalator to tube station, buy ticket and go down another level to Circle/Met/Ham&City line.

Thank you all for your help. I have one more question. I'm meeting some other people at Kings Cross and none of us have ever been there before. Is there a predominant landmark there where we could easily see to meet at? Thanks again!
