Ocean Cruise Terminal —
Berth 46/47, SO14 3QN
Ocean Cruise Terminal sits at Berth 46/47 on Cunard Road, accessed via Dock Gate 4 off the A33. Your Rushxo driver takes you directly to the passenger drop-off beside the luggage handling area — no walk from a car park, no working out which gate.
Vehicles for Every Cruise Party
From a saloon for a couple to a 9-seater for the whole family, every vehicle carries full cruise luggage and is TfL-licensed, available 24/7. All fares fixed at booking.
Saloon
The most requested vehicle for Ocean Terminal. Ideal for couples and small families with standard cruise luggage.
Executive
Mercedes-Benz E-Class or BMW 5 Series. Suited driver, chilled water, USB charging, climate control. Begin the cruise in style.
People Carrier (MPV)
Large MPV for six passengers and a holiday's worth of luggage — far more economical than two saloons.
8-Seater Minibus
Spacious 8-seat minibus for groups of seven — the most economical group option to Ocean Terminal.
9-Seater Minibus
Full-capacity 9-seat minibus. Eight passengers and all luggage together in a single vehicle.
One Fixed Price.
Confirmed in Writing.
With Rushxo, "fixed price" is precise: the fare shown when you book your Ocean Cruise Terminal taxi — the saloon fare, MPV, 8-seater — is the exact total charged when you arrive at Berth 46/47. Motorway traffic on the M3 or M27, an early embarkation slot, a Sunday return — none of it alters the figure.
That certainty matters more for a cruise than almost any other journey. Miss embarkation and there is no next sailing and no refund, so the transfer is a decision, not a convenience. Your driver is allocated when you book — not on the morning — and your booking confirmation email is the contract.
No surge. No night rate. No luggage extras.
The same fixed fare at 5am as at 5pm, with full cruise luggage included as standard. No additions for traffic, time of day or day of week.
Getting to Ocean Terminal —
Calm and On Time
Everything you need for a smooth arrival at Berth 46/47, from check-in timing to luggage and the right dock gate.
Timed for your check-in window
Most lines open check-in at Ocean Terminal between 11am and 1pm. We time your pickup to arrive at the start of your allocated window, so queues stay short.
Full cruise luggage
Two to three large cases per saloon, more in the MPV and minibuses — all included. The driver assists unloading at the luggage drop beside the terminal.
Straight to Dock Gate 4
Drivers know Ocean Terminal is accessed via Dock Gate 4 off the A33. Tell us your cruise line and we confirm the exact drop-off on arrival.
Early starts, same fare
Embarkation often means a pre-dawn departure for passengers travelling from further afield. There is never an early-morning supplement.
Return pre-booked
Book your disembarkation pickup at the same time. Most Ocean Terminal disembarkations finish by 10–11am; your driver is confirmed in advance.
Cheaper than parking
For a one or two-week cruise a return transfer often beats port parking — and your car isn't left at the docks for a fortnight.
