Before you travel
Good to know about Cardiff to Cardiff.
Licensed, insured, vetted
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.
Move-in weekends
Freshers’ arrival dates funnel every family into the same few days. Halls set one-way systems and timed unloading bays — we book the slot with you and bring an estate or MPV so a year’s kit moves in one run.
At the Cardiff end
Park Place fronts the main building with a workable kerb — the Students’ Union end queues on open days, so we drop at Column Road.
Timing
The 13-mile run typically takes 25–35 min. Your driver watches live traffic and, inbound, times the pickup to your actual flight.
The Cardiff–Cardiff transfer
This route joins a venue and a transport hub, and both ends have their own rules. Park Place fronts the main building with a workable kerb — the Students’ Union end queues on open days, so we drop at Column Road. At Cardiff Airport, your driver meets you in arrivals with the flight tracked — so the 13-mile run between them is the easy part.
Reckon on 25–35 min for the 13 miles, with 60 minutes of complimentary waiting and every toll inside the fare. Vehicles run from a saloon to a sixteen-seat minibus, so the same booking works for a couple or a whole party.

What does the Cardiff–Cardiff Airport car cost?
From £55 for a saloon, agreed before you book — the same fare applies in reverse, and larger vehicles are priced up front too.
Where are we met at Cardiff?
Park Place fronts the main building with a workable kerb — the Students’ Union end queues on open days, so we drop at Column Road.
Does the price change on event days?
No. The fare is fixed when you book — event-day traffic, closures and staging are our problem to plan around, not a surcharge.
Can I book the return to Cardiff?
Yes — returns are welcome and often discounted, with the pickup point agreed before you go in and adjusted live if the day runs long.
How long does the journey take?
The 13-mile run is typically 25–35 min, depending on traffic and the event calendar. Your driver plans around both.
Can you take a group?
Yes — executive MPVs seat up to seven and minibuses up to sixteen, priced up front. Groups sharing one vehicle usually beat separate app cars comfortably.
