Travel notes
The 30-mile run typically takes 1h 15–1h 45. Your driver watches live traffic and, inbound, times the pickup to your actual flight.
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.
A term’s luggage usually fits one estate; a full house move wants the MPV. Tell us about the instruments and the bicycle first.
Gower Street set-down serves the main quad; halls across Bloomsbury each have their own best kerb, which we match to your address.
A UCL–Luton Airport transfer lives or dies on the two meeting points and the fixed price. International arrivals with a year’s luggage do best landing at halls first, registering second — we sequence the two stops in one booking. Inbound, the flight is tracked and the UCL pickup moves to your real arrival; the fare from £80 is agreed before you travel, either direction.
Reckon on 1h 15–1h 45 for the 30 miles, with 60 minutes of complimentary waiting and every toll, plus the London charges where they apply, 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.
