Booked the Executive Saloon for £110 to connect from a business flight at London City to my Virgin Atlantic departure at Gatwick North Terminal. Driver met me at arrivals with a name board and we were on the M25 within minutes. Perfect stress-free connection.

My LCY arrival was delayed 30 minutes but the driver tracked the flight and was still there waiting. Saloon for £75, straight down the A2 and M23 to Gatwick South Terminal. Made my TUI holiday flight with time to spare. Fixed price meant no nasty surprises either.

Needed the MPV 6-Seater for our family of five heading from London City to Gatwick for a Caribbean long-haul. All bags fitted easily, driver was professional and dropped us directly at North Terminal departures. Will absolutely use again for future inter-airport transfers.
