Plenty of travellers land at Gatwick on one carrier and fly onward from Southend on another, and self-connecting between the two is where the cross-London rail route falls apart.
Southend is built around the leisure carriers — easyJet, Ryanair, Wizz Air and TUI — and their early departures reward passengers who stay near Gatwick the night before and transfer over fresh.

Common questions about Gatwick to Southend taxis. More on our FAQ page.
The fare is fixed and shown in the price table above, from the saloon rate up through the larger vehicles. 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 M25 is doing on the day.
Allow roughly the drive time shown above. Most of the route is motorway and dual carriageway along the M25 and the A127, so outside the Dartford Crossing peaks the timing is dependable, and your driver builds in a sensible buffer for your onward Southend departure.
The standard run drops onto the M23, joins the M25 anticlockwise past the Dartford Crossing, then takes the A127 Southend Arterial Road east through Basildon towards Rochford. When the crossing is congested, an experienced driver will judge the alternatives before leaving Gatwick to keep your connection on track.
Yes. We collect from the North Terminal and South Terminal arrivals halls, the pick-up zones at each building, and every Gatwick hotel including the Sofitel, Hilton, Bloc, Yotel, Hampton by Hilton and the Premier Inn and Courtyard by Marriott properties on the perimeter.
