I reckon it's gonna have to be a cab. Don't fancy tackling the tube with all that in tow, and the airbus seems to have pretty strict luggage limits.

How much would a cab cost?

You could take the Heathrow Express. It'll take you straight to Paddington station, but I'm not sure how to get to euston from there.

When I took the heathrow express though, someone actually jumped in front of the train from a bridge. All trains in the area were cancelled and I got stuck trying to navigate via bus and tube into the city! What a pain that was (and all my luggage as well).

Thankfully the trip back to the airport was uneventful Smile Takes only 15 minutes!

Is there any luggage limit on the Heathrow Express?

I guess we could always get a cab from Paddington to Euston. I dread the thought of dragging baggage around. Will probably just take the cab and have done with it.

When my mum flew over from canada last year I paid for her to get a taxi from Heathrow to central London and it was £50.

Be warned though that if you have that mush luggage you will probable not fit it all into a regular London cab. It sounds like you may need a small van and I am not sure how much that would be?
