    Hi,

    Has any of you ever had to travel to Norwich? If so, which airport would be best to fly into? I have an interview at the University of East Anglia there next week but am a bit clueless as to the bet way to get there. I'm guessing that i'll have to fly into London first, but London is one massive city with 5 international airports!

    Flybe fly into Norwich Airport, but on the assumption you don't want to wait a week before coming back, then Stansted is your best bet.

    www.nationalrail.co.uk will give you the train times and is very handy. It looks like you can do it in under 2 hours from Stansted Airport.

    Yep, Stanstead is your best bet, and then a slow train to nowhere. Norwich is not on the way to anywhere at all so your unlikely to find any fast trains going that way, but still quicker than waiting a week for the return flight I guess.

    You're lucky I read this.
    FlyBe from Dublin - Norwich. Your other bet is to fly into Stansted and then get a train/bus up to the fine city. National Express will stop at UEA too if you need that.

    Also, www.thetrainline.co.uk is another very useful site for trains
