The route

From Sidcup (DA14, DA15) the natural line out is the A20 and the A222, joining M23 J9a, then the terminal approach for the last part of the journey. The whole thing runs to about 29.2 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 55 min off-peak becomes 1h 15m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.

Where we meet you at Gatwick Airport

Meet and greet in the North or South Terminal arrivals hall. North and South terminals are a shuttle apart, so we confirm which one you land at before the day.

Address: Gatwick Airport, Crawley, RH6 0NP.

Pickups across Sidcup

Pickups cover the whole of Sidcup and the DA14, DA15 districts across South East London. That includes home addresses, hotels, offices and the station forecourt.

We cover the whole of Sidcup - DA14, DA15 - including the residential streets where a passing cab is a matter of luck rather than timing.

When to leave

For a short-haul departure, allow 2 hours at the airport plus 1h 15m on the road; for long-haul make that 3 hours. We watch your flight, so an early or late landing does not change the price.

Getting back from Gatwick Airport

Coming back the other way, the driver meets you in arrivals with a name board and the fare is the same £60. We track the flight, so a delay costs you nothing.
