Cambridge - Post Report Question and Answers
What is your home city/country? How long is the trip to post from there, with what connections? How easy/difficult is it to travel to this city/country?
Multiple US-occupied RAF military bases within 20 miles of several surrounding communities including Cambridge, Newmarket, Bury St. Edmunds, Mildenhall, Lakenheath, Feltwell, Thetford, Ely and less than 100 miles from London. There are buses in the area, but owning a car is much more convenient, as this is a rural area. - Mar 2013
Texas, 10 hours direct by plane from London Heathrow Airport to Houston Intercontinental Airport. It is best to fly into London Heathrow and then take the National Express Bus (called "coach" here) from Central Station London, easily reachable by foot and free underground from the airport terminal. Bus tickets can be purchased on their website or directly at Central Station. http://www.nationalexpress.com/coach/index.cfm. You will take National Express bus/coach for approximately 2.5 hours to Cambridge. One bus is more direct and one stops at Stansted airport for an hour. Try to get the direct bus. The buses run pretty regularly, but make sure you book a bus/coach that gives you plenty of time to get baggage and get through customs (1.5 hours should be plenty, but under that might be iffy depending on how busy the airport is). For maximum flexibility, you may decide to buy your coach ticket from Central Station instead of in advance/online. - Sep 2012
