That is your punishment for not stopping off in London to see us. ;)

Seriously, there is a bright side to the bus transfer. You can do it as a direct airside transit. You don't have to clear immigration, retrieve your bags or clear customs, just to not arrive in the country - unlike some places one could mention. And you still get access to all of the airside departure facilities.

Long-haul flying - how to sleep your way around the world.
