Airport guidance, checked

Gatwick arrivals meeting and vehicle collection

Gatwick distinguishes meeting someone inside arrivals from express collection. Its Short Stay car parks allow drivers to park and walk into arrivals; express bays require the driver to stay with the vehicle.

Gatwick passenger pickup guidance

Your meeting point is supplied with your booking. Airport-published parking tariffs do not tell you what is included in your transfer quote. Confirm any waiting or parking charge with us before agreeing to it.

North or South Terminal at Gatwick?

North Terminal

Choose Gatwick North Terminal as your pickup and add your flight number. Your meeting instructions will confirm the arrivals meeting point and name-board arrangement.

Gatwick’s express vehicle collection bays are on Level 4 of Car Park 6. Use the arrivals meeting point confirmed for your booking before walking to a car park.

South Terminal

Choose Gatwick South Terminal as your pickup and add your flight number. Your meeting instructions will confirm the arrivals meeting point and name-board arrangement.

Gatwick’s express vehicle collection bays are on the ground floor of Car Park 3. Use the arrivals meeting point confirmed for your booking before walking to a car park.

Private car or public transport from Gatwick?

Gatwick offers rail journeys into London, including Victoria and stations on the Thameslink route. Allow for the terminal-to-station connection and the trip from your London station to the hotel. A private vehicle takes your party and bags to the destination address you book.

A typical road journey to Central London is approximately 60–90 minutes, excluding time to leave the aircraft and collect bags. This is a planning estimate and can be longer in traffic.

Frequently asked questions

Gatwick airport transfer questions

What pickup time should I enter for a flight arrival?

Enter the scheduled flight arrival date and time in London local time, plus your flight number. Airport pickups include 60 minutes of waiting and parking from actual landing. Contact our team if baggage collection or immigration takes longer; additional waiting or parking is quoted and agreed first.

Is Gatwick meet and greet the same as express pickup?

They are different arrangements. Gatwick’s express bays require the driver to remain with the vehicle; drivers meeting passengers inside arrivals use parking. Your London Arrival meeting instructions confirm where to meet your driver. Follow them before leaving arrivals for a vehicle collection area.

Do I need to change terminals for my Gatwick pickup?

Book your arriving North or South Terminal and follow the meeting instructions sent before travel. Gatwick's rail station is at South Terminal, but a rail connection is separate from your private-car pickup. Tell us about any terminal change.

How much does a Gatwick to Central London transfer cost?

Our advertised one-way private saloon starting fare is £100. Your exact fare depends on the destination, vehicle and stops; enter your journey to see the full quote before paying.

When should I book my airport pickup?

Enter your scheduled flight arrival date and time in London local time, not an estimated meeting time. Add your flight number so we can monitor changes. Airport arrivals include 60 minutes of waiting from actual landing, with parking during that period included in your quoted fare. We monitor your flight and adjust collection if it lands late, with no extra charge solely for a flight delay. Hotel, home and station pickups include 10 minutes from the booked pickup time. Contact us promptly if immigration or baggage collection takes longer. Extra waiting is arranged in 15-minute blocks: the team will quote the waiting charge and any additional parking separately and obtain your agreement before extending the wait. No extra charge is automatic.

How do I book a Gatwick airport transfer?

Select your pickup and destination from the location suggestions, add your flight number and terminal in the journey details, then review the fare and pay online. Book at least 24 hours ahead.

Can I travel from Gatwick to an address outside London?

Yes. Search for the full destination address, place name or UK postcode and choose a result. You can add entrance or meeting instructions after choosing your vehicle.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Provide the flight number with the booking. It can be monitored so the airport pickup plan can be adjusted when the flight schedule changes.

Is the vehicle shared with other passengers?

No. This is a private transfer booked for your party and the route entered with the reservation.
