Cheap flights from Baltimore (WAS) to London (LON)

If you want to travel to a city rich with living history, a trip in London can’t be beat. It’s where you’ll find such British icons as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey. To get there from Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI), a direct flight takes just over seven hours. You can easily get to BWI from the Light Rail, and Amtrak and MARC trains also go to the BWI Rail Station, with free airport shuttles available from the station.

Attractions

Head to the London Eye Ferris wheel to witness picturesque views of the entire city. Back on the ground level, visitors seeking a glimpse of architecture from the Middle Ages will enjoy the Palace of Westminster, St Paul’s Cathedral and the Tower of London. Visit the National Gallery, the Courtauld Gallery, or the Victoria and Albert Museum to view priceless works of art.

Hints and Tips

London Heathrow Airport (LHR) is quite large, so keep in mind that it can take up to half an hour to walk through it. Outside of the airport, London has a reputation as a rainy city, but you’ll find sunny weather and warmer days between April and October. Those looking to explore farther afield from London, will find Stonehenge, Brighton, Oxford and Canterbury are all a short drive or train ride away.
