Frequently Asked Questions

For European budget flights we generally recommend arriving 2 hours before departure; for longer routes, 3 hours. We will suggest a pickup time based on your location, terminal and typical traffic on the M11 corridor.

We track your flight in real time. If your flight is delayed, we adjust the driver’s arrival time. If your flight is cancelled and you notify us (or we can verify with the airline), cancellation fees are normally waived.

For standard pickups, we agree a specific area in the Short Stay Car Park or Priority Pick-Up Zone. For Meet & Greet, your driver will wait inside the arrivals hall with a clear name board – we send step‑by‑step meeting instructions before you land.

Yes. Child seats and boosters can be provided when requested at the time of booking (subject to availability). Many parents prefer to use their own seats; our drivers will help you fit them securely before departure.

For solo travellers, the train plus Stansted Express can sometimes be cheaper, but for families, groups, early‑morning or late‑night flights, a fixed‑fare door‑to‑door taxi is often better value and far more convenient – especially when you factor in rail tickets, parking and connections.
