Three sources give three starting prices: "from GBP 5" (the airport), "from just GBP 7" (National Express route pages, used here), and "from GBP 10.50 one-way including a GBP 1.50 booking fee" (National Express's Stansted hub). A 33 per cent group discount applies to four or more, on single journeys only, with code GRPAPT33 — a percentage, so it cannot be priced into a total here.
Travelling as three or four?
A private car to your door: £152.90 for four
Four pay from £28 on the National Express coach. The car meets you in arrivals and takes you to any address in London in about 60 min, at a price fixed when you book ahead with Welcome Pickups.
A partner link: Welcome Pickups pays us a commission on a booking. It has no say in how the options are ranked.
The same ticket, 3 places to buy it
The fare above is the one National Express publishes; each seller sets its own price. Our partners pay us a commission, so they come first, and National Express's own site follows. How this list works

Worth knowing
The operator says the service runs round the clock, and its individual route timetables show first and last departures from the airport clustered around midnight — A6 00:15 to 23:55, A8 00:10 to 23:50, A9 00:05 to 23:45.
The 33 per cent group discount needs four or more people, applies to single journeys only, and cannot be combined with a Coachcard or other offer. Book it online or at the National Express desk, not by phone or on board.
The cheapest ticket type is Restricted, which cannot be changed or refunded. Change & Go costs GBP 5 each way and lets you take any coach within twelve hours either side of your booked departure — worth it if your flight might slip.
A seat is not guaranteed unless your ticket names a specific service.
On the way
The stops worth knowing, in riding order, with the minutes from the airport in the operator's own timetable.
Does the National Express coach stop at Stratford, Montfichet Road (stop X)?
