Reading to Heathrow Airport Taxi – Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Reading to Heathrow taxis. More on our FAQ page.

How much does a taxi from Reading to Heathrow 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 M4 that day.

How long does the Reading to Heathrow journey take?

Allow roughly the drive time shown above. Almost the entire route is motorway along the M4, so outside the morning rush the timing is dependable; your driver builds in a sensible buffer for the busy stretch around the Reading junctions and the Slough interchange.

What is the best route from Reading to Heathrow?

The standard run joins the M4 at junction 11 or junction 10, then east along the motorway to the Heathrow spur and onto the perimeter roads for your terminal. When the M4 is congested around the Reading junctions in the morning peak, an experienced driver knows to set off earlier rather than sit in the queue.

Do you pick up from Caversham, Earley and Tilehurst?

Yes. We collect from every Reading suburb including Caversham, Earley, Lower Earley, Tilehurst, Woodley, Whitley and Southcote, as well as the wider RG postcodes such as Theale, Pangbourne, Twyford and Burghfield.
