On the day

Plan your collection.

Keep your confirmation and the booking contact number to hand. If you cannot find the agreed collection point, call before moving to a different entrance.

01

Treat the drive time as an estimate

Road conditions and the actual endpoints affect the journey. Add arrival time at the destination and breaks for a longer trip; do not use the estimate as a guaranteed deadline.

02

Confirm both ends

Check the collection entrance at The British Museum, Bloomsbury and the arrival address at Gatwick Airport. Include intermediate stops and a required arrival time; the driving estimate does not include time inside a terminal or building.

Choose your car
