You Want to Walk to London? Let's Talk Distance (Across a Very Big Pond)
Ever fancied popping over to London for a cuppa and some scones, but then realized you left your plane (and possibly your passport) at home? Fear not, intrepid traveler, because we're here to discuss the age-old question: just how far is that darn tootin' London from New York City, anyway?

The Great Transatlantic Trek: Miles and More Miles
For those who prefer their journeys measured in good ol' fashioned feet (or should we say yards, because this is a long one), then buckle up, buttercup. We're talking about a whopping 3,461.34 miles (or 5,570.48 kilometers for our metrically minded friends) separating the Statue of Liberty from Big Ben. That's further than you could throw a double-decker bus (though please don't try - international incidents and all that).
In other words, this is a trip best suited to:
Tip: Patience makes reading smoother.
- Birds with exceptional wingspans.
- Really, really enthusiastic swimmers (with floaties highly recommended).
- Anyone who fancies inventing a time machine to skip right over the Atlantic.
But Wait, There's More! (Because Seriously, It's a Long Way)
Here are some other fun facts to ponder while you contemplate your (probably not) transatlantic voyage:
- A supersonic jet airliner can make the trip in around 7 hours. So, fancy packing a good book?
- If you opted for a nice, leisurely cruise, you'd be looking at more like 7 days. Plenty of time to perfect your afternoon tea etiquette.
- And for the truly adventurous (or perhaps slightly foolhardy) souls, rowing across the Atlantic could take you anywhere from 40 to 90 days. Just remember to pack enough sunscreen!
So, How Do I Actually Get to London? (Besides Swimming)
Alright, alright, so we've established that walking (or swimming) probably isn't the most practical option. Here are a few more realistic ways to bridge the Atlantic gap:
QuickTip: Absorb ideas one at a time.
- Airplanes: The clear winner for speed and convenience.
- Ships: For a more leisurely (and potentially seasick-inducing) experience.
- Time Machine: Still under development, but hey, a dreamer can dream, right?
Remember, whichever method you choose, be sure to pack your passport and your best British accent (optional, but highly encouraged).
