Regular travellers from Heathrow airport will probably be familiar with the Heathrow Hoppa service that acts as a lifeline from airport hotel to check-in. And this essential service can now be purchased alongside a Heathrow hotel booking with the market-leader HolidayExtras.com.

By reserving a Hoppa seat when making a hotel booking, there’s not only a saving of one pound per return journey, there’s also a giant step made towards a hassle-free start to a holiday.

The Hoppa service can be booked once the hotel has been chosen, with the running times clearly stated so there’s no uncertainty.

Anthony Clarke Cowell, head of product innovation and merchandising at HolidayExtras.com, said: “Traditionally, the Hoppa service has been a service that travellers have to organise for themselves, and we recognised that this is potentially stressful for our customers. They don’t want to be bothered with timetables or carrying loose English change on holiday to pay for the bus on their return.”
