Timing your Stansted flight from Greenwich
Stansted's timetable is heavy with early low-cost departures, and the terminal is busiest from 05:00. The roads are rarely the problem at that hour; the security queue is.
Flights before 08:00
Leave about three hours before departure; the drive is quick and the rest is airport time.
Daytime
The M25 and the tunnels are busy from 07:00. Allow the full journey time.
Evening
Between 16:00 and 18:30 the crossing and the M11 can add 20–30 minutes.
Give us your flight number and we set the pickup time and confirm it by text. Night and early-morning pickups cost the same as daytime ones.
Is a pre-booked car worth it from Greenwich?
By public transport you would start at Greenwich station and travel into London and then the Stansted Express from Liverpool Street or Tottenham Hale. It works for one person with light luggage in the daytime, but it usually means at least one change with cases, and the first trains do not suit early departures.
App cars are least predictable exactly when airport runs need them: early in the morning and at peak times, when surge pricing can take a 39-mile trip well above our fixed £179.
With us the job goes to a named driver confirmed the evening before, the price is agreed in writing and cannot change, and airport charges are already handled.
- Fixed fare agreed before you travel
- Saloon, executive, MPV, 8-seater or 9-seater minibus
- Free child seats and boosters
- Card, cash or invoice with nothing added
- Licensed, DBS-checked drivers

Your 60 minutes' free waiting starts at touchdown. If passport control or baggage reclaim is slow, message the driver and we wait.
Where to meet. The driver waits in the short-stay car park or the airport's designated pick-up area and texts you the exact spot. Meet and greet with a name board in arrivals is available on request.
The run home is the same route in reverse, dropping you at your door in Greenwich or anywhere in Greenwich town centre, Maze Hill, Westcombe Park, East Greenwich, Greenwich Peninsula and Deptford.

EES and your airport transfer
Will I go through EES at Heathrow, Gatwick or Stansted?
No. UK airports do not run EES. When you fly to a Schengen country, you register on arrival at the European airport, and your exit is recorded when you fly home.
My flight home might land late because of EES queues. What happens to my transfer?
Give your flight number when you book, so the driver can follow the actual landing time rather than the scheduled one.
Who does not need to use EES?
EU, EEA and Swiss citizens (including Irish passport holders) are not included. UK nationals who live in the EU and hold a residence document should show it at the border, as they are not registered in EES either.
Do I need ETIAS as well?
Not yet. ETIAS, the EU's separate online travel authorisation, has not launched, so there is nothing to apply for. The EU will announce a start date months in advance; until then, avoid websites that charge for it.
EES is the EU's digital border check for non-EU travellers, fully in use since April 2026. It is not a visa. Checked September 2026; rules can change, so see the EU Travel to Europe site before you travel.
