The journey
95 miles, 1h 55m.
Luton is a long way north for a Southampton pickup — M3 up to the M25, anticlockwise past Heathrow, then M1. Ninety-five miles, and the M25 section is the variable one.
Two hours is typical outside peak. For a 06:00 check-in that means a pickup around 03:15, which is exactly the hour when a metered fare and a tired driver make for an unpleasant surprise.
The price is the same in both directions and does not change for a night pickup, a bank holiday, or a two-hour crawl round the M25.
Where we meet you
Luton's terminal forecourt was rebuilt around the DART shuttle; we use the designated pickup area and text the exact bay 15 minutes before landing.
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 55m for roughly 95 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 Luton Airport; swap the two fields, or tell the office when you call.
