Hastings sits at the seaward end of the A21, the road we take for almost every airport run out of the town. Your driver heads north out of town and follows the A21 up through Robertsbridge and toward Tunbridge Wells, then turns west onto the A264 through Pembury and across toward Crawley and the airport. Because much of the A21 is single carriageway through the High Weald, the timing is more dependable early in the day before the commuter and holiday traffic builds, and a driver who knows the road will read the slow stretches around Flimwell and Lamberhurst and pick the moment to leave accordingly. When the A264 is heavy near Tunbridge Wells, an experienced driver may cut across the lanes toward the A26 as an alternative approach.

Our coverage reaches well beyond Hastings itself. Along the coast to the west, our Bexhill to Gatwick taxi picks up the A259 and A21 for the same fixed-fare, no-changes transfer, while for travellers on the seafront at Eastbourne to Gatwick taxi we take the A22 straight up to the airport with meet-and-greet on the return leg.
Inland we look after the historic towns of the High Weald too. A Battle to Gatwick taxi joins the A21 north where the 1066 battle was actually fought, well inland from Hastings itself, and out toward the Kent border our Rye to Gatwick taxi handles the longer run from the marshes with the same transparent pricing.
Wherever your journey begins in Sussex, every fare is fixed in advance and every driver is licensed and DBS-checked. Check your town against our full list of areas we serve.

Hastings and St Leonards send plenty of travellers to Gatwick for work, and the slow coastal train makes a fixed-fare car the easy choice for a flight. There is no coastal crawl to sit through, no dragging a case between platforms, and the fare is locked when you book. For early departures the driver arrives before dawn so you reach check-in with the buffer a connecting rail journey can never guarantee.
Travelling from Ore or Silverhill with children and a boot full of cases is far simpler door to door. The driver loads the luggage, fits any child or booster seats you asked for at booking, and on the way home meets you inside arrivals with a name board so nobody is hunting for a pickup point after a long flight.
For a team heading out from one of the seafront hotels, or a family group leaving from several Hastings addresses, the larger MPVs and minibuses carry up to sixteen passengers with their luggage in one vehicle. One fixed price, one driver, and no splitting the party across separate train tickets and taxis at the airport end.
East Sussex College and the town’s language schools draw students who fly from Gatwick at the start and end of each term, often with more luggage than a train comfortably allows. A pre-booked car from a St Leonards or Old Town address takes the whole load in one run, with the fare agreed up front so there are no surprises on a student budget.

Everything you need to know about our Hastings to Gatwick taxi service including pricing, journey times, coverage areas, and what is included with every booking. Visit our FAQ page for more.
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 day.
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. Almost the whole route runs up the A21 and west along the A264, so outside the peak the timing is dependable; your driver builds in a sensible buffer for the single-carriageway stretches through the Weald.
The standard run is the A21 north from the coast, then west onto the A264 toward Crawley and the airport. When the A264 is congested near Tunbridge Wells, an experienced driver may switch to the lanes toward the A26 to keep you moving.
Yes. We collect from every Hastings neighbourhood including the Old Town, St Leonards-on-Sea, Ore, Silverhill, Hollington and Bohemia, as well as the surrounding TN villages such as Fairlight, Westfield and Guestling.
Yes, the same fixed fare applies in both directions. For the return leg the driver tracks your inbound flight, so if you land early or late the pickup adjusts automatically and you are met in arrivals with no extra waiting charge for normal delays.
We monitor your flight number, so the driver knows the real landing time before setting off to meet you. There is no charge for waiting caused by a delayed flight, and your car will be there when you clear the arrivals hall rather than to the original schedule.
Yes. The service runs twenty-four hours a day, and pre-dawn departures are among the most common bookings from Hastings. Reserve the night before and the driver arrives in good time to reach the airport with your check-in window comfortably covered.
Both of them. Gatwick has just two terminals, North and South, and we cover departures and arrivals at each. Tell us your terminal and airline when you book; on the return your driver meets you inside the correct arrivals hall with a name board, whichever terminal your flight comes into.
