we arrived and saw a bus labelled for gatwick airport and thought, not our bus,it must be late. The bus left at 553 am. our bus was due to leave at 555am. we booked a bus to heathrow airport. was not told of any bus number or that we needed to board a bus labelled gatwick. did the driver not know how many passeners booked?not pay attention to the fact that he was leaving early when there are people with big suitcases waiting in a desserted bus station? i am appauled. and knowing its a non refundable service.
