Why Choose Airport Rides UK for Your Gatwick Airport Transfer?

Why Choose Airport Rides UK for Your Gatwick Airport Transfer?

Gatwick is a very thin-margin operation. Two terminals (a drop zone that charges by the minute) and a train service that stops operating once there are still many flights leaving. A pre-booked taxi to Gatwick Airport eradicates all those variables. Just enter your trip one time and compare fixed rates from licensed operators for your trip, or select the best one for you.  

All operators listed with us are fully licensed private hire operators that have drivers who know the approach road for each terminal and how long the M23 takes at 5:50 a.m. in the morning. The fare is fixed before you travel and doesn't move after you have booked your taxi transfer to and from Gatwick Airport. Even if you need it to be cheaper to get to London or you need it to be less expensive to get home from London, you will be able to book taxi transfers from Gatwick to London or London to Gatwick Airport.

  • Transparent fares without a meter, no surge pricing or any extra charges at the kerbside.
  • PCO-Licensed Drivers: Chauffeurs that are vetted, experienced and uniformed.

Booked a 4 am pick-up for the North Terminal the night before and half expected something to go wrong. The driver was parked outside ten minutes early with the boot already open. Clean car, fair price, and I was through security before the queue built up. DH ·

Our flight back from Malaga landed almost an hour late, and nobody rang us, and nobody charged us extra. The driver was simply standing in arrivals with the board when we finally came through with two exhausted children. That is exactly what you want at the end of a long day.

I compared four operators for the same Brighton to Gatwick run and the price gap between cheapest and dearest was genuinely surprising. Booking took under two minutes on my phone, and the confirmation came through instantly. Third time using it now.

FAQ

Common questions

Everything you need to know before booking with Airport Rides.

How to book a taxi from Gatwick Airport?
Enter your pick-up postcode, terminal and your travel time, then compare fixed quotes from licensed operators for your route. You can book securely online, and confirmation will be sent to you by email and SMS with the driver's information.
In what way do I have to book a taxi in advance to Gatwick Airport?
At least 24 hours in advance is sensible for journeys to/from an airport. Bookings are accepted up to a year ahead or same day as operator availability for a planned trip.
Serve both North and South Terminal?
Yes. There is coverage for both pick-up and drop-off at both terminals. Give us the one you want when you book, and your driver will be briefed before the day.
What if I get onto the wrong terminal?
Inform our support personnel immediately if you notice, and we will inform the operator of the correction. The two terminals are located near each other, and a timely change is likely to be simple.
Is the taxi price quoted at Gatwick the final price?
Yes. All quotes are fixed and inclusive of VAT. No meters, no surge pricing and no drop-off charges.
Does the Gatwick Airport pickup/drop off fee form part of my ticket?
Yes. There are no extra costs at the terminal door; it is included in the quote. Gatwick charge is determined and updated by Gatwick; please consult the Gatwick website for the current published charge.
Will I be charged more if the M23 is busy?
No. Your fare is fixed in advance and will not be affected on the day by congestion diversions or roadworks.
If I am delayed in flight to Gatwick, what happens?
Arrival times are monitored for all Gatwick Airport pickups, and your driver's arrival is automatically changed. There is no additional charge for a delayed landing.
At which point will my driver be waiting for me at Gatwick Airport?
Your driver is waiting with a name board in the arrival hall of Gatwick Airport to assist you with your luggage. If you have booked a kerbside pick-up, the meeting point is sent to you by SMS on the day.
Do I need to give my flight number?
Yes, for all arrivals to Gatwick. The number of the flight is the important one as it helps to track the landing time and alter the pick-up without anyone having to call.
What is the time duration of taxi service between London and Gatwick Airport?
Please remember that journey times can differ significantly between boroughs and at different hours, and so should not be taken as a definite time. Your operator schedules flights based on an average instead of your flight time, and we suggest more time for weekday mornings.
Any Brighton to Gatwick connections?
Yes. Brighton to Gatwick taxi services are very popular on the platform, with services available from Hove, Worthing, Eastbourne, and across the Sussex coast.
In what other sections do you provide services for Gatwick transfers?
Every London borough and long-distance routes from further afield. Type in your postcode and the platform reveals which operators provide coverage on your postcode.
Do you have a return date that I can book?
Yes. Change the booking form to Return before searching, and both legs will be quoted and booked in one transaction.
What kind of car should I get for my suitcases?
A saloon will hold four passengers and two cases, and an estate will hold four and four. Select the MPV (for a family) or the minibus (for a group) at 6 passengers 5 cases or 16 passengers 10 cases respectively. If you are carrying skis, golf clubs or a pushchair, book a size up.
Is there a child seat hire at Gatwick?
Placeholder. Check and confirm availability and fee. If the network has the option to add a line, encourage passengers to book seats on the network.  
May I cancel/change Gatwick booking?
Yes. Changes or cancellations must be made via a booking reference or support. Line for cancellation and any applicable fee.  
Are Gatwick drivers licensed and vetted?
Yes. All drivers on the platform complete a 12-point compliance test, including private hire driver insurance and driver background checks, before booking.
