FAQ
Hounslow taxi frequently asked questions
How do I book a taxi in Hounslow?
Book online at rushxo.co.uk, on WhatsApp, or by calling the 24/7 line on 02088889988. Enter your Hounslow pickup point, destination and time — you'll get a fixed quote instantly, confirmed before you travel.
Is Heathrow Airport in Hounslow?
No — Heathrow Airport sits entirely within the neighbouring London Borough of Hillingdon. Hounslow borders the airport directly on its eastern edge, which is why the drive is still one of the shortest in London, even though the terminals themselves are in Hillingdon.
How much is a taxi from Hounslow to Heathrow?
Fixed-price taxi from Hounslow to Heathrow starts from £65 for a saloon (up to 4 passengers). The journey typically takes 10–20 minutes.
What does "fixed pricing" mean?
The fare is quoted and agreed before you book, and it doesn't change with traffic, time of day, weather or demand. Any applicable extras are always disclosed at booking, never added on the day.
Are your drivers background checked?
Yes. Every RushXO driver is DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checked, and RushXO holds a Transport for London Private Hire Operator licence, number 11588.
Do you operate in Hounslow 24/7?
Yes — 24 hours a day, every day of the year including Christmas Day and New Year's Day. Same fixed prices at night: no night, weekend or holiday surcharge.
Do you offer meet and greet at the airport?
Yes. For airport pickups the driver waits in the arrivals hall with a name board. Your flight is tracked automatically and free waiting time starts from your actual landing — request meet & greet when you book.
Can I book a larger vehicle for a group?
Yes. Alongside saloons and executive cars we run MPV 6-seaters and V Class minibuses — ideal for families and groups heading to the airport. Choose your vehicle when you get your quote.
