Worth knowing
Good to know about Gatwick to The City.
Timing & flight tracking
Your driver watches live traffic and, because we track the flight, leaves to match your actual landing rather than the schedule.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and vetted — name, photo and number sent before the day.
The run itself
Expect 65–95 min to The City. The pinch points are the usual London approaches at rush hour — your driver knows which to avoid and when.
Where your driver meets you
Your chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall at Gatwick with a name board and helps with the luggage before the direct run to The City.
Tolls & charges included
Every road toll — and, where the route applies, the London Congestion Charge and ULEZ — is inside your price.
The Gatwick–The City transfer, planned around your flight
Most of what goes wrong on an airport transfer goes wrong at the two ends — the meet, and the price. From Gatwick to The City we take both off the table. Your driver is inside arrivals with your name, the luggage is theirs to carry, and the 65–95 min run to The City is at a figure agreed when you book, not one that drifts with the traffic.
Reckon on 65–95 min for the drive. The The City approaches firm up through the morning and evening peaks; your chauffeur knows the pinch points and, with the flight tracked, sets off to meet your real landing rather than the timetable. Sixty minutes of waiting is built in, so a slow carousel at Gatwick never costs you the car.

Typically 65–95 min, depending on the traffic and your exact address in The City. Your driver plans around live conditions.

Yes — infant, child and booster seats are free. Add them when you book with the child’s age and the correct seat is fitted before pickup.
