National Express Cheltenham Gatwick recent customer reviews
We arrived fine at Heathrow but left a small case in the hold as we hurried to board our coach to Gatwick. We contacted Nat Express and it's been logged , and I spoke to a very empathetic person who said he would do his best to locate our case. It was the NX444 from Cheltenham 14.15 departure. We're off on a flight tomorrow morning 10.45 South Terminal . If it's located , is there any slim chance it could come on a coach to Gatwick asap tomorrow morning 6th December. Many thanks.

Very happy with the service. Only thing which was'nt clear was we had to change at Heathrow to go to Gatwick. Luckily there was another coach to take us but the driver told us we had missed it.
