We flew to Manchester once as we were flying from there to the Caribbean

It was cheaper than driving and parking and not much more expensive than going by coach.

Considering the pain in the arse a National Express would be it was worth it.

Heathrow is closer of course so mitigates the benefits a little, but then you avoid the M25 so that's a plus.

As Gob says price is the key. If it compares favorably to driving its worth it. They'll need to be smart with baggage allowance, bearing in mind it'll essentially be a 'connection'.
