Hi,

It's pretty tight because the shuttle trains are not running . There are buses only but they take about 10-15 mins ( plus waiting time).

You should make it , assuming you have checked in on-line and have you b/pass etc ( or it's a thru tkt )

But it's going to be tight .

Good luck

If you head straight to the bus after getting off the plane, you should be alright. It will be a fair long walk though from the check-in desk to the plane departing to Cork though, so be as quick as you can.

You might make it, but really - with the current state of inter-terminal transfers at Gatwick, plus the time of day, you may not. Be prepared for the worst, and be pleasantly surprised if it works.

The annoying thing with Gatwick is the security queues, especially if it is summer. There is also the chance the plane you get off and the one you board are about 100 yards apart, but you have to travel for an hour to get from one to the other.

Security queues can be a pain there, but rather than going to the main security downstairs, if it's busy go up the food area upstairs (The Village). There is another security check at the back of that area that is usually much quieter.
