Title: How to get from Stansted Airport to Kings Cross London after 12am
Question: Besides Taxi, how can i get from Stansted Airport to Kings Cross London after 12am? As I will arrive Stansted from Pisa at 11:30pm that late.  I have checked the national rail website, it guides me to take train to Liverpool street, followed by tube to Kings cross (leaving at 01:21). However, the last tube I checked on the tube website is 00:48. It's so confusing.

sents: text: There is a night bus from Liverpool Street to Kings Cross N205 , so you can get to Liverpool Street with a train or a bus, and then take this bus.
text: Also, there is a taxi stand near Liverpool Street station, it should be reasonably easy to find a black cab there, it is not far from there (around 3 miles), so the cost should be <£15.
text: If nothing else works, it is 50 min walk according to Google maps.

text: During times when the London Underground Network is closed customers are advised to use either Taxis or the Night Bus Network to continue their journey.
text: If you use the TfL journey planner it advises taking the 242 to City Thameslink and then the N63.
text: If you would prefer a single bus (saves money and is probably more reliable) you can replan the journey to minimise changes; this gives the N205 which runs every half hour.
text: From 2015 you will be able to make this journey on the Night Tube , taking the Central Line to change at Holborn and then the Piccadilly Line to Kings Cross.
