Frequently asked questions

How much is a taxi from Heathrow to central London?

A private Heathrow to central London transfer with British Express Cars starts from £49 per vehicle in a saloon. The price is fixed when you book and includes meet and greet, flight tracking and 60 minutes free waiting.

Do you charge extra if my flight is delayed?

No. We track every flight and move your pickup time automatically, so a delayed or early flight never costs you more.

How long will the driver wait for me at the airport?

Airport pickups include 60 minutes of free waiting from the time your flight lands, which covers passport control and baggage reclaim. Pickups from addresses include 15 minutes.

Which airports and cruise ports do you cover?

We cover Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City airports, and the Southampton, Dover, Harwich, Portsmouth and Tilbury cruise ports, plus any address in the UK mainland.

Are your prices per person or per car?

Prices are per vehicle, not per person, so families and groups usually pay less per head than on trains or shared shuttles.

Can I book a child or baby seat?

Yes. Request baby or booster seats when you book and they will be fitted before pickup.

How far in advance should I book an airport transfer?

Booking at least 24 hours ahead guarantees your vehicle, especially for early-morning flights and peak holiday dates, but we also accept short-notice bookings when drivers are available.

Is British Express Cars a licensed operator?

Yes. British Express Cars is a licensed private hire operator and every driver holds a private hire driver licence and drives a fully insured vehicle.
