Between the The Dilly lobby and the terminal, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
The Dilly to Gatwick Airport · Hotel route
A fixed-price chauffeur between The Dilly and Gatwick Airport — 28 miles, typically 1h 10–1h 40, in either direction. Booked in advance, met in person, flight tracked on the way in.

How it works
Travelling to The Dilly, your driver meets you in arrivals at Gatwick Airport with a name board, flight tracked, 60 minutes of waiting included. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: cars collect from the Denman Street corner rather than Piccadilly itself — a calmer thirty-yard walk the doormen will point you to.
Between the The Dilly lobby and the terminal, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Our drivers know the Piccadilly approach and the Gatwick Airport pickup layout, so neither end turns into a lap of the block.
Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.
The Dilly to Gatwick Airport or the reverse — the fixed fare from £75 holds either way.
