The Route
Gatwick to Covent Garden. Your driver meets you in the arrivals hall of the North or South Terminal with a name board, helps with luggage and takes the M23, A23 and over Waterloo Bridge. Allow 115–180 minutes depending on the time of day; we track your flight, so a delay simply moves the pickup. Your hotel door. Covent Garden's piazza and Long Acre are pedestrian or restricted for much of the day, so the driver uses the nearest open side street and walks you the last few metres if needed.
Covent Garden to Gatwick. For the return we collect from your door at the time we agree; as a rule, allow 2 to 3 hours before departure; the two terminals are a shuttle ride apart, so tell us which one. Tell us the flight and we will suggest a pickup time that fits it.
We wait in the arrivals hall of the North or South Terminal with a name board. Sixty minutes of waiting after landing is included, plus help with the luggage to the car.

Why Covent Garden
Theatreland, the Royal Opera House, the market and Seven Dials - Covent Garden is where people stay for shows and restaurants. It is also the slowest part of central London to reach by car, so the fixed fare matters more here than anywhere.
Matinee days (Wednesday and Saturday) make the streets around the Strand slowest between 1pm and 3pm.
Landing at Heathrow with theatre tickets that evening? Tell us the curtain time and we plan the pickup back from it.
Congestion Charge and ULEZ are included in the fare; nothing is added on the day.
