Meeting your driver at Heathrow

The flight is tracked from the moment it lands, so the pick-up time moves with the aircraft rather than the timetable. Waiting time is included while you clear the border and collect your bags, which on a busy morning at Heathrow can take considerably longer than the airline suggests.

Terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5

Each terminal has its own arrivals hall and its own meeting point, so tell us the terminal when you book. The driver meets you inside, by the exit from baggage reclaim, with a name board. If your airline moves the arrival to a different terminal at short notice, send us a message and the driver moves with it.

If you are delayed getting out

Lost luggage, a long border queue or a wheelchair assistance wait can all add an hour to the walk from the aircraft to the kerb. None of that is your fault and we would rather you told us than rushed. Call the office and the driver will stay.

Dropping off around Cambridge

Cambridge is awkward for cars by design. The historic centre has bus gates, restricted access streets and a good deal of pedestrianisation, and a satnav will happily route you into a road you are not permitted to drive down. Drivers on this route know the permitted approaches, but it does mean the drop-off is sometimes a short walk from the door.

Colleges and the science parks

College porters lodges are usually the sensible target, and most have a set-down a driver can use briefly. The Science Park, the Biomedical Campus and West Cambridge are much easier by car than the centre and have proper parking, so if your destination is one of those the journey ends at the door.

Addenbrookes and the station

Addenbrookes has a defined drop-off for patients and visitors that is separate from the main car parks. Cambridge station has a short set-down on the station square side. For both, saying which one you need when you book saves a lap of the one way system.
