When to leave Lewisham for Luton
Luton advises being at the terminal two hours before European flights. It is the furthest airport from south-east London, so traffic matters more here than anywhere.
Early flights
At night the M25 and M1 are clear and the drive is at the quick end.
Daytime
The northern M25 is slow for much of the day. Allow the full journey time or more.
Friday afternoons
The worst window of the week. For evening departures, leave before 13:30.
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.
Taxi, train or app from Lewisham to Luton?
By public transport you would start at Lewisham station and travel to St Pancras, then the fast train to Luton Airport Parkway and the DART shuttle. 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 40-mile trip well above our fixed £187.
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

EES and your airport transfer
How early should I get to a European airport for my flight home?
ABTA advises arriving at least two hours before departure, because the EES exit check can add time at busy airports.
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.
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.
