How it works
Travelling to The Athenaeum, your driver meets you in arrivals at Biggin Hill Airport with a name board, flight tracked, 60 minutes of waiting included. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the hotel’s lay-by on Piccadilly westbound takes pre-booked cars directly; the living wall makes it the easiest doorway on the street to spot.
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
A named chauffeur with your board at Biggin Hill Airport, and a car at the door at The Athenaeum — no rank, no app, no waiting on a stranger.
The Athenaeum to Biggin Hill Airport or the reverse — the fixed fare from £64 holds either way.
Between the The Athenaeum lobby and the terminal, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.

Rush hour, nights (10pm–6am) and bank holidays cost more; the return leg is 5% off when booked together — your quote shows the exact price before you book.
