The route

From Swanley (BR8) the natural line out is the M25 J3 and the A20, joining M4 J4 or M25 J14, then the terminal spur for the last part of the journey. Door to door it works out at roughly 47.5 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 1h 20m off-peak becomes 1h 55m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.

Where we meet you at Heathrow Airport

Meet and greet in arrivals at your terminal, or the designated private hire pickup if you prefer kerbside. Flights are tracked, so a delayed landing does not change the price and waiting time is included.

Address: Heathrow Airport, Hounslow, TW6.

We pick up anywhere in Swanley and the surrounding Kent postcodes - BR8. That includes home addresses, hotels, offices and the station forecourt.

From Swanley the M25 J3, A20 route does most of the work, so the timing holds up even when the local roads are busy.

When to leave

For a short-haul departure, allow 2 hours at the airport plus 1h 55m 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.
