Havering ⇄ Heathrow Airport
One of London's longest Heathrow runs – leave early.
London Borough of Havering · airport & Eurostar transfers
Fixed fares from Romford, Hornchurch, Upminster, Rainham, Harold Wood and Gidea Park to London's five airports and five international stations, both ways. With the M25 on the borough's edge, Stansted is the natural choice – £85 to Stansted Airport in a saloon.
Havering is London's most easterly borough, bordered by Essex and the M25. Romford is its busy market town, with Hornchurch, Upminster, Rainham, Harold Wood and Gidea Park around it. The A12, A127 and A13 all run through the borough, and the M25 junctions 28 and 29 are on its edge.
That makes Stansted and the Dartford Crossing very accessible, while Heathrow is one of the longest airport runs anywhere in London. Every Havering postcode is outer London in the booking engine.
Each card shows the fixed saloon fare from Havering, the saloon return, and links to the detailed page for each direction. Book buttons open the booking page with the route filled in.

Standard fares, whole vehicle, one way; the reverse journey costs the same. Returns are 1.9× the single. The engine adds 20% for Friday journeys, Saturday and Sunday pickups before noon, Monday–Thursday trips into London 07:00–10:00 and out of London 16:00–19:00, and a seasonal supplement from 17 December to 1 January.

Havering addresses are outer-London postcodes, so there is no central surcharge on these fares, and the Congestion Charge allowance only appears on the St Pancras run because the station itself is in a central postcode. What moves the price is distance, plus the airport drop-off charge at the airport end. Runs where neither end is an airport or inner London – Ebbsfleet, Ashford and Birmingham International – are priced on the engine's out-of-town rate, which is about 10% above the London rate for the same mileage.

Here is how each London airport run usually goes from Havering.
Heathrow is on the far side of London. Drivers choose the North Circular or the M25 anticlockwise depending on traffic; both take over an hour at busy times.

Luton is reached round the M25 anticlockwise or along the North Circular to the M1.
Stansted is a short motorway run: the M25 to the M11 and junction 8. Ideal for early departures.
London City is a direct run west along the A13 from Rainham and Hornchurch.
Five stations in England carry "International" in their name. St Pancras is the Eurostar terminal; Stratford, Ebbsfleet and Ashford sit on the HS1 high-speed line; Birmingham International serves Birmingham Airport and the NEC. Only St Pancras currently has Eurostar departures.

Ebbsfleet is just over the Dartford Crossing, making it the borough's nearest international station.
Ashford is a quick motorway run via the Dartford Crossing and the M20.
