Are National Express buses to Luton airport frequently delayed on Saturday afternoons?

score:7

That's a safety margin of 40 minutes, which, given London's usual traffic ~~chaos~~ issues, I would personally consider too slim (I'm very cautious about missing flights).

I would either:

take an earlier bus or
find out the route and check the roadworks register to make sure nothing major is happening along the way.

Again, this is personal caution. You'll probably have no problem.

Also, have you looked at advance train tickets? They might be a lot cheaper.

An update for the beginning of 2020. The National Express's website says:

For airport journeys we recommend allowing at least 3 hours (180 minutes) between your coach arrival time and scheduled flight.

So 40 minutes margin is certainly too small as per website operators.
