Airport Minibus Transfers

Up to 7 in a Mercedes V-Class, up to 8 in a Vito, and 16 or more in a minibus. Larger parties are covered by running more than one vehicle on the same schedule, so everyone still arrives together.

Roughly one large case per seat in the people carriers, and more in a full minibus where the rear space is separate from the seating. Luggage rather than seats is what usually decides the vehicle, so tell us the case count when you book.

Count passengers and cases separately, then take the larger requirement. Six passengers with six large cases is a Vito rather than a V-Class. If you are unsure, send us both numbers and we will assign the right vehicle rather than leaving you to guess.

Almost always, yes. One vehicle carries one fare rather than three saloons carrying three, and the price is fixed for the whole group before you travel. It also removes the problem of cars arriving at different times.

Yes, on every arrival. Your chauffeur parks, comes into the arrivals hall with a name board and helps with the bags. For a group this matters more than for a single traveller, since there is one clear meeting point rather than people spreading out across the terminal.

The pickup moves with the aircraft at no extra charge. Your driver holds the flight number and follows the live landing time, so a delayed group is still met on arrival rather than being asked to rebook.

Up to 60 minutes from touchdown as standard. Groups usually clear passport control and baggage reclaim more slowly than individuals, so that window exists for exactly this kind of booking.

Yes. The quote is confirmed before you book and covers the whole vehicle, so it does not change with traffic, waiting or the hour you travel. One fare is agreed for the group rather than split at the end of the journey.

Yes, free of charge, and for as many children as you are travelling with. Send us the ages when booking so the correct seats are fitted before the vehicle sets off, since they cannot be added once the driver is on the way.

Yes. Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted, London City and Southend, along with the private terminals. Group vehicles are available at all of them, and the meeting point is the arrivals hall of your terminal.

Yes. Onward runs to Oxford, Cambridge, Birmingham, Brighton and the cruise ports at Southampton and Dover are regular group bookings, with one driver for the whole journey and the price agreed before departure.

Yes, but tell us in advance. Skis, golf bags, cellos and similar take space that a case count alone does not capture, so the vehicle is sized against them rather than the group discovering the problem at the terminal.

Above 16 passengers, usually yes. Vehicles are then scheduled to arrive and depart together and are booked as one job, so the group is not split across separate bookings with different drivers and different arrival times.

Earlier than a saloon. Bookings open from three hours before pickup, but there are far fewer minibuses than saloons on the road, so larger vehicles and early morning departures fill first. For events, book as soon as the flight times are known.
