Transportation between Stansted and Gatwick airports?

How would we get from London Stansted airport to London Gatwick airport? We have to change from one to the other -- must we go back into London, or is there a bus/shuttle or something we can take? Thanks.

First, you stop posting in HTML. Usenet is a plaintext forum,
no matter that your newsreader might suggest otherwise.

Then, you take a look at

Check the German Rail site for bus/train combinations

http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/det...n/query.exe/en

and

www.nationalexpress.com

for bus service to the Victoria Coach Station then three blocks or so to
Victoria Station for the Gatwick express (Gatwick Express schedules at the
German Rail site).

The German rail site suggests train from Stansted to Liverpool
Street Station, then local transit to London Bridge station for a
train to Gatwick, but this looks pretty awkward. Stansted train
to Liverpool Street tehn Underground to either Blackfriars or
Victoria station makes more sense.

All of this goes through Central London. One-way rental car via the M25 around
London would be faster except perhaos at peak times, but expensive Normal
driving time about 1:10, my atlas says.

whilst I happily recommend the DB timetable for most european
journeys I don't think it's going to be the best for this journey

The new 'network rail' travel planner at:

http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/planmyjourney/time_table/journey_requirements.asp

Has got much better recently and will give you a fuller range of
travel options, and now even gives fares.

And when talking about London area, I think the Transport for London
Journey Planner¹ can give decent directions, albeit its suggested
routes between Stansted and Gatwick seem go via central London and
thus take almost or bit over two hours...

What looks awkward about it ?
There is a direct bus service, if you dont have too much luggage, or a short
taxi (cab) ride if you do ...
