The journey
67 miles, 1h 26m.
Southampton to Heathrow is the busiest route we run. It is M27 → M3 → M25 anticlockwise, and the whole journey is motorway apart from the first and last few minutes, which is why it is quicker than the mileage suggests.
The M25 between junctions 12 and 14 is the part that decides your journey. For a departure before 09:00 we build in the Sunbury-to-Heathrow queue; for an evening flight we leave earlier rather than drive faster. Because your price is agreed before you travel, a longer run through traffic costs you nothing extra — the meter risk sits with us, not with you.
Coming the other way, Heathrow to Southampton is priced the same. We track the inbound flight from wherever it took off, so the pickup time moves with the aircraft, and the first 60 minutes of waiting after landing is free — enough for a full-flight baggage reclaim at T5 or T2.
Where we meet you
Arrivals hall of your terminal, name board up. We take the terminal from your flight number, so a diverted or re-gated arrival does not need a phone call.
What the fare covers
And what it does not.
- The journey end to end — driver, vehicle, fuel, and luggage handling — at a price locked when you book, in either direction.
- A standard saloon or estate. Larger vehicles (people carrier, minibus, executive classes) run the same journey on our per-mile rate, quoted upfront before you pay.
- Airport drop-off and pickup charges, congestion and ULEZ where they apply, are quoted as separate lines on the booking form — visible before you pay, never added after.
- Up to 60 minutes of free waiting on an airport arrival; after that, £20/hr in 15-minute increments.
- Free cancellation up to 24 hours before pickup; 25% within 24 hours. Full mechanics at /refund-policy.
Frequently asked
Quick answers.
- You get the full price before you book, and it does not change afterwards. Enter the journey on the booking form and the quote comes back on our published rate card, in whichever vehicle you pick. Our fixed-fare routes are a promotion we run from time to time; they are paused just now and will open again.
- About 1h 26m for roughly 67 miles in typical traffic — that figure comes from the same routing engine that quotes the fare. Airport runs are planned backwards from your check-in time rather than forwards from an average speed, so an early-morning departure is given more road time, not less.
- No. The price you are quoted is the price you pay: it does not move if the route turns out slower on the day, and there is no surge and no meter running in the back. Airport drop-off charges, where the airport levies them, are quoted as their own line so you can see exactly what makes up the total.
- We track inbound flights from departure and shift the pickup to match the actual landing time — no phone call needed from baggage reclaim. Up to 60 minutes of waiting after landing is included free; beyond that, waiting bills at £20/hr in 15-minute increments. For rail arrivals we work from the live arrival time in the same way.
- Yes — we price the journey the same way in either direction. The booking form opens showing Southampton to Heathrow Airport; swap the two fields, or tell the office when you call.
