Central London to Gatwick Airport Taxi – Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Central London to Gatwick taxis. More on our FAQ page.
How much does a taxi from Central London to Gatwick cost?
Your fare is fixed and shown in the price table above, starting with the saloon and rising by vehicle size. It is an all-in figure with no surge pricing, so the number you see when you book is the number you pay, whatever the traffic on the way out of town.
How long does the Central London to Gatwick journey take?
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. Most of the route is fast dual carriageway and motorway down the A23 and M23, so once you are clear of the centre the timing is dependable; your driver builds in a sensible buffer for the run through Brixton, Streatham and Croydon.
What is the best route from Central London to Gatwick?
The standard run leaves the centre by the cleanest road for the time of day, then follows the A23 south through Brixton, Streatham and Croydon to the M23 and the airport spur. When the southern suburbs are congested, an experienced driver adjusts the pickup time so the airport end is never a rush.
Which Gatwick terminal do you cover, North or South?
Both. Gatwick has just two terminals, North and South, and we drop at whichever your airline uses.
