Travel notes

Good to know about St James’s to Stansted.

Leaving from St James’s

Pall Mall and St James’s Street move even at peak; the awkward corner is Piccadilly’s junction, which we skirt via Marlborough Road when the Ritz traffic stacks.

When to leave

Allow 1h 25–2h on the road at most hours. For morning peaks we advise leaving before 6:30am; your booking confirmation includes a recommended pickup time.

Licensed, insured, vetted

Every P5 chauffeur is TfL-licensed private hire, fully insured and DBS-checked.

questions.

Anything else — call us any time on 020 8742 2888.

How much is a taxi alternative from St James’s to Stansted Airport?

Our fixed chauffeur fare starts at £125 for a saloon — agreed when you book, with tolls and London charges included, whatever the traffic does.

What time should I be picked up?

The drive is typically 1h 25–2h; add your airline’s check-in window on top. Tell us the flight and we recommend a pickup time rather than leaving the maths to you.

Do you do very early pickups?

Constantly — the pre-dawn Stansted Airport run is the most-booked journey in St James’s. Pickups between 10pm and 6am carry a 15% night supplement, shown in your quote; once booked, the fare is fixed.

What if my plans change?

Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pickup, and time changes before that window cost nothing at all.

Can you also collect us on the way home?

Yes — book the return and we track your flight into Stansted Airport, meet you in arrivals with a name board, and include 60 minutes of waiting free.

How much luggage fits?

Two large cases in a saloon, four in an estate, and a full family holiday in an MPV — tell us the count and the right car arrives.
