One way, per car. Every fare is fixed when you book, so traffic never changes the price.
Going to Gatwick Airport
Because the M25 can be unpredictable, book your Gatwick pickup with time to spare. With a fixed fare, a slow motorway never changes the price.
Book as far ahead as you like. We recommend booking early flights the day before, so your driver is confirmed before you go to bed.
Coming home from Gatwick Airport
- Book with your flight number. Online, in the app or on 01462 701 701.
- We track your flight. If it lands early or late, your pickup time moves with it, at no extra charge.
- Your driver is waiting. Get through baggage reclaim and we will be there.
Meet and greet: for a small extra charge, your driver will meet you inside the terminal, in arrivals. Ask for the price when you book.
The route we take
Gatwick is on the far side of London, so we take the A1(M) to the M25 and then the M23. We check traffic before we set off and choose which way round the M25 to go. Allow about 90 minutes, and more at busy times.
North and South terminals
We drop off and pick up at both terminals. Tell us your airline or terminal when you book. Gatwick charges for terminal drop-off, so ask us how that is covered in your fare.
Door to door with luggage
You can reach Gatwick by train from Hitchin, but with suitcases, children or an early flight, a car from your front door is much simpler. Your driver loads the bags, and you can sleep on the way.
Common questions
How long does a taxi from Letchworth to Gatwick take?
About 90 minutes in normal traffic. We recommend allowing two hours at peak times.
Is a taxi to Gatwick better than the train from Hitchin?
The train can be quicker for one person with hand luggage. A taxi is easier for families, groups, heavy bags and early or late flights, and the fare is per car, not per person.
Will my driver wait if my flight into Gatwick is delayed?
Yes. We track your flight and move your pickup time to match, at no extra charge.
Do you offer meet and greet at Gatwick Airport?
Yes, for a small extra charge. Your driver will meet you inside the terminal, in arrivals. Ask for the price when you book.
