Before you travel
The 25-mile run typically takes 45 min–1h 05. Your driver watches live traffic and, inbound, times the pickup to your actual train.
Twenty thousand people want transport at once; a pre-staged chauffeur is the only version of the night that ends quickly.
Every P5 chauffeur is fully licensed private hire, insured and DBS-checked.
We track running times on the night, so the car is at the agreed point about ten minutes after the final encore — never gone, never early.
A Leeds Arena–York Station transfer lives or dies on the two meeting points and the fixed price.

Inbound, the train is tracked and the Leeds Arena pickup moves to your real arrival; the fare from £86 is agreed before you travel, either direction.
Reckon on 45 min–1h 05 for the 25 miles, with 15 minutes of complimentary waiting and every toll inside the fare. Vehicles run from a saloon to a 8-seat van, so the same booking works for a couple or a whole party.
