On 25 December there is no Tube, no bus and no National Rail in London, and the Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted Express trains do not run. Flights still do. A pre-booked car is the only door-to-terminal option that is certain on the day, and with Rushxo it costs what it costs on a Tuesday in March: the fixed fare below, per car, with no Christmas premium added.
Book the pickup time around your flight, not around a timetable. Roads are quiet on Christmas morning, so the drive to Heathrow from the centre is usually shorter than normal, but the fare does not change either way.

Arrivals on 25 December face the same problem in reverse: the terminal is open, the trains are not. Your driver tracks the flight, meets you in arrivals with a name board and takes you straight to the door, so a family landing at 3pm is home before the roast, not queuing for a rank that may be empty.

No. The fare is fixed when you book and is the same on 25 December as on any other date. There is no Christmas premium, no night rate and no Bank Holiday uplift.
No. TfL runs no Tube, bus or Elizabeth line service on Christmas Day, National Rail does not run, and Heathrow Express does not operate. A pre-booked car is the practical way to reach any London airport on the day.
Yes, at any hour. Give the flight number and the driver tracks it, so a late arrival moves the pickup rather than losing it. The free hour of waiting starts from actual touchdown.
A few days is normally fine, but cars for family arrivals go early, so book as soon as you have the flight. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pickup if plans change.
