Arriving at Stansted

Stansted has a single terminal, which makes it simpler than the multi-terminal airports, but the drop-off sits a short walk from the doors and is strictly a set-down rather than a place to wait. The driver will help with the bags and see you to the entrance.

On the way back

For the return leg the driver tracks your inbound flight and meets you inside arrivals with a name board, with waiting time included while you clear the terminal. Stansted handles a lot of early and late traffic, and bag reclaim can be slow when several aircraft land together, so the meet is based on the flight rather than the clock.

Early departures

Stansted runs a heavy schedule of very early flights, which for a long-distance pick-up can mean setting off in the middle of the night. That is routine for us. Give us the flight number and we will suggest a departure time rather than leaving you to work it out.

Timing a long transfer

On a journey of this length, the variable that matters is not distance but the motorway network on the day. We build the likely conditions into the time we agree rather than quoting a best case, and the fare is fixed when you book, so a slow stretch costs you time but never money.

How much margin to allow

For a flight, work back from the check-in time your airline has set rather than the departure time. Tell us the flight number and we will propose a pick-up. Most people would rather sit in the terminal with a coffee than watch the clock on the motorway.

Breaks, luggage and child seats

There are services on every one of these routes if you want to stop, which is worth knowing with children in the car. Tell us the number of cases as well as passengers so the right vehicle turns up, and ask for child or booster seats when you book so we bring the correct ones.
