The new Luton Dart service will improve train access to the airport

Passengers have previously had to use a shuttle bus taking around 10 minutes between the airport and the train station.

But the bus is being replaced by the electric-powered Luton Dart (Direct Air-Rail Transit) train which will take just over three minutes to complete the 1.3-mile journey. Although the price of the Dart service will be £4.90 one-way - more than double the current shuttle bus fare of £2.40.
