Pick-up in Luton Airport, drop-off at Cheltenham Racecourse
Pick-up is in the arrivals hall at Luton Airport: the driver holds a name board, the flight is tracked and 45 minutes of waiting is included, so you go from the gate to Cheltenham Racecourse without a queue for the rank. At Cheltenham Racecourse we drop at the official drop-off point, or the meeting corner we agree for the Cheltenham Festival when the roads around the venue are closed.
At 83 miles this is a 2.0-2.9 hrs drive in normal conditions. Event-day queues are the driver’s problem, not yours: the fare is fixed either way.
Cheltenham Racecourse to Luton Airport: the journey home
Cheltenham Racecourse to Luton Airport is the same fixed fare as the outbound leg. Book both legs together and the driver waits at the agreed meeting point at the end of the Cheltenham Festival, however late it runs; for a flight home we time the departure from the venue around your check-in, and the driver drops you at the terminal door. Waiting time is included in the return price and the fare does not change for the finish time.
Event days at Cheltenham Racecourse
For the Cheltenham Festival we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from Luton Airport for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
