Quote: Always makes me chuckle to think of some poor bastard in a far flung country booking their first trip to London and picking Southend as an airport thinking that it must be very close to the city, looking on Google tk see that it's less than an hours drive......to then be stuck on the A127 for 3 hours after they land ?Hence Ryanair using itÂ

An hour by train from Liverpool Street. When it used to commute into Southend, I'd often end up waking up tourists to stop them missing the airport station.
