Southampton Cruise Terminal to Central London: how this direction works
Disembarking at Southampton Cruise Terminal: the pickup is timed to your arrival, with luggage space for the bags a cruise brings, and a driver waiting at the terminal meeting point rather than a queue for whatever is left. Fixed fare to Central London, per car.
Dropped in Central London: to the door of the address you give, with nothing to settle on arrival. The fare, £194 for the car, was agreed when you booked, and a return booked together is about 10% less.
If you would normally open Uber, Bolt or FreeNow for this journey, the difference is when the price is set: an app quotes at the moment of demand and can surge, while this fare was fixed when you booked and does not rise on the night.
