The route
About 65 miles by road, usually 1 h 30 min to 2 h 15 min. Drivers normally use the M25, M23 and A23.
Summer weekends and events at the Amex Stadium make the A23 busier than usual.

Brighton to Heathrow transfer
Brighton is south of Heathrow, so the usual drive is round the M25 and then south. It suits arrivals heading to a seafront hotel, and early departures when the trains are not running yet.
