How it works
Door to door, one fixed price.
Travelling to Shangri-La The Shard, your driver meets you in arrivals at Luton Airport with a name board, flight tracked, 60 minutes of waiting included. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the hotel’s own entrance sits on St Thomas Street, separate from the Shard’s office lobby — your chauffeur waits there, not in the London Bridge drop-off scrum.
Known both ends
Our drivers know the London Bridge approach and the Luton Airport pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
Luggage handled
Between the Shangri-La The Shard lobby and the terminal, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Every charge included
Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.
Cars & capacity
Shangri-La The Shard to Luton Airport from £110.
