Gatwick Airport to King's Cross, via the M23.

Gatwick to King's Cross is about 32 miles and roughly 78 minutes. If you are connecting to an East Coast train, a car is worth it for luggage and groups; travelling light, the rail route via Victoria may suit you better. Fixed fare here, or call +44 20 8050 9020.

The Gatwick to King's Cross route

The M23 then the A23 in through Brixton, crossing the river and running north up through Bloomsbury to the Euston Road. Around 32 miles and about 78 minutes. The distance is modest but the second half crosses central London from south to north, which is the slow way through.

King's Cross and St Pancras are two stations

They sit side by side and people mix them up constantly, which matters when you are arriving with bags and a train to catch. King's Cross serves the East Coast main line to York, Newcastle and Edinburgh. St Pancras next door serves Eurostar, East Midlands services and Thameslink.
Tell us which one you need when you book. The set-down points are different, and walking between them with luggage takes longer than you would expect at platform level.

What tends to affect the time

Euston Road

One of the busiest roads in London and slow for most of the working day.

The station approaches

Both stations have controlled set-down areas that queue at peak times.

Pentonville Road

The eastern approach, and the usual alternative when Euston Road is blocked.

M25 junctions 7 to 10

The usual variability earlier on.

Charges and dropping off

The Congestion Charge zone boundary runs along Euston Road and Pentonville Road, and the stations sit on the northern side of that line, so the charge does not normally apply. Some nearby addresses are just inside it, so we confirm against your exact destination when we quote. Whatever charges apply on your route, the Congestion Charge included, they are already inside the fixed fare we quote you. You never pay them separately to the driver.

King's Cross station

Set-down on the designated area rather than on Euston Road.

St Pancras and Eurostar

A separate entrance with its own drop-off, on Pancras Road.

The Coal Drops Yard and Granary Square offices

Easier access than the station frontages and more room to unload.

Hotels

Several sit directly opposite the stations with their own set-down arrangements.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 78 minutes for roughly 32 miles. The second half crosses central London from south to north, which is what makes it slower than the distance suggests.

They are separate stations side by side with different drop-off points. King's Cross for the East Coast line to York, Newcastle and Edinburgh; St Pancras for Eurostar, East Midlands and Thameslink. Tell us which when you book.

If you are travelling light, the rail route via Victoria is competitive on time. With luggage, a group, or a very early or late arrival, the car is usually the easier option and drops you at the right entrance.

Not separately, no. Any charge that applies to your journey is already inside the fixed fare we quote, so there is nothing to settle with the driver. For reference, the boundary runs along Euston Road and Pentonville Road and the stations are on the north side. Some nearby addresses are just inside, so we check when we quote.

We track it and move the pickup to your actual landing time, with 60 minutes of free waiting included.

Yes. Give us the entrance and we will confirm where to wait and suggest a departure time for that day.

Cancellations need at least 24 hours' notice to be eligible for a refund, and refunds are subject to a £7 or 10% administration fee, whichever is higher. No refund is issued where notice is under 24 hours, or where the passenger does not show up. To cancel, email or call us and wait for written confirmation; until you have that, the booking still stands.
