"Booked an Estate Car from Stansted to a hotel near York Minster. Driver met us in arrivals with a name board, all four suitcases loaded without a problem. The drive up the A1(M) was smooth and we arrived at YO1 7HH in just under 3.5 hours. £280 fixed fare, not a penny more. We were visiting for a family graduation at the University of York and LondonAirport‑Taxi.com made the whole day stress-free."
"Travelled from Stansted to York Racecourse for the Ebor Festival. easyJet was 40 minutes late and the driver tracked the flight — no waiting charges, professional and calm. Arrived at YO23 1EX with time to spare before the first race. £250 Saloon, totally fixed. The driver even knew which entrance to use on race day. Highly recommended."
"Used for a 07:00 Ryanair flight from Stansted at the end of the academic year. Driver collected me and three friends from the University of York Heslington campus at 03:00. We arrived at Stansted departures comfortably within 3.5 hours. Four of us sharing the £250 Saloon fare worked out far cheaper than train connections at that hour. Absolutely will use again."
