Flying out
Drop-off
You are set down at the departures forecourt of your terminal; the airport drop-off charge is already in the price.
Flying home
Meeting your driver
Your chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall of your terminal with a name board, past customs and baggage reclaim. Your flight is tracked, so an early or late landing moves the pickup with it. Up to 60 minutes of waiting after landing is free.
Good to know
Terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5
Check which terminal your airline uses before you travel: Terminal 5 has its own access road, so telling us the terminal saves time on the day.
Planning your Heathrow pickup
Passenger collection uses Terminal Parking or Park & Ride, not the terminal forecourts. Confirm your terminal and follow the meeting instructions in your booking.
For P5 meet-and-greet bookings, check your confirmation for the meeting point and contact details. Keep your phone available after landing, and contact the team if baggage, immigration or assistance takes longer than expected. Do not move to a different terminal or car park without agreeing it with your driver.
