Flight Diverted to Gatwick? Getting Home or to Heathrow Taxi – Fixed Price Quote, Book Online 24/7
When Heathrow saturates or London City fogs in, Gatwick catches the overflow — and a planeload of people with cars, hotels and connections at the other airport lands 40 miles from all of them. The recovery is a solved problem: fixed inter-airport fares, name-board pickups, receipts for the claim.
Car in the T5 multi-storey, hotel by T2, tomorrow's connection from T3 — the diversion moved you, not your plans. Gatwick–Heathrow from £74 fixed, 45–70 minutes by hour of day, either direction. Ask about the airline's coach first; when it's hours away, the receipt makes your case later.
🌁 The LCY Fog Special
London City's short, steep approach closes in fog long before Gatwick blinks — winter's classic swap. Docklands, Canary Wharf and the City are a fixed-fare run from the Gatwick forecourt at any hour: about an hour to E14 at night, name board up on arrival.
🌑 Just Get Me Home
Landed at midnight into a Gatwick whose trains are thinning fast? The night silo covers the mechanics — Gatwick at 2am, late-night London runs from £96 — and a diversion simply means booking before the other two hundred passengers reach the forecourt. WhatsApp from the taxiway; board the car from arrivals.
💰 The Money Question
Airline-responsibility diversions normally put onward transport on the airline — provided, or reimbursed within reason. Extraordinary causes (weather, ATC) change compensation, not care. Keep the itemised receipt, note times and what staff said, and read the claims guide on the ride home.
