LEO Enticknap, although living a 15-minute walk away from York Station, suggests that travelling to London via Leeds/Bradford Airport and Heathrow and, presumably, by train to the centre is a better way than using the GNER service to King's Cross (Letters, January 10).
This is certainly not so if you do not own a car as this airport is not served by public transport from York and a taxi both ways would be required.
May I suggest he uses the excellent service provided by the travel centre at the station.
If the journey can be planned in advance he will be surprised at what is on offer.
My wife and I travelled first class to Bristol in the Christmas week for £50 each return.
Similar fares are available for London.
