Due to strikes on the London Underground, disruption to London Stansted Airport could be expected. Please take this into account when planning your journey. 

Tube strikes - January 2024

RMT strikes on the Tube are currently planned in early January.

If they go ahead, there will be severe disruption on the London Underground network from the evening of Sunday 7 January through to the morning of Friday 12 January.

  • Sunday 7 January: Tube services will close earlier than normal. Customers are advised to complete Tube journeys by 17:30

  • Monday 8 to Thursday 11 January: Severe disruption is expected, with little to no service expected to run

  • Friday 12 January: Tube services will start later than normal, with a good service expected by midday

No other TfL services will be on strike but some bus, DLR, London Overground, Elizabeth line and national rail services will be busier and affected by station closures where stations also serve London Underground lines. One-way or queueing systems may also be in place.

Customers that need to travel during this time are advised to plan ahead, check before you travel and allow more time for your journey.
