The route
From Croydon (CR0, CR2, CR9) the natural line out is the A23 and the A232, joining A27 Falmer interchange, then Village Way for the last part of the journey. That is about 46 miles door to door. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 1h 15m off-peak becomes 1h 45m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
Where we meet you at American Express Stadium
Village Way North, on the university side away from the station ramp. The A27 at Falmer is single-carriageway either side of the ground and backs up badly, so an early set-down beats sitting in it.
Address: Village Way, Falmer, Brighton, BN1 9BL.
Pickups across Croydon
We pick up anywhere in Croydon and the surrounding South London postcodes - CR0, CR2, CR9. House, hotel lobby or office reception, whichever suits you on the day.
We cover the whole of Croydon - CR0, CR2, CR9 - including the residential streets where a passing cab is a matter of luck rather than timing.
When to leave
Doors are usually an hour before the match starts. Allowing 1h 45m for the drive from Croydon plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night.
Getting back from American Express Stadium
The return is the leg worth planning. Everyone leaves American Express Stadium at once, so a car booked to wait at the agreed point gets you moving while the queue is still forming - same £103 back to Croydon.
What every booking includes
- One point of contact if plans change on the day
- Available 24 hours a day, every day of the year
- A text with the driver's name, photo and registration before pickup
- Child seats on request at no extra cost
- Flight and event tracking, so delays do not change the price
- A fixed price agreed before you travel - no meter, no hidden extras

How early should I get to a European airport for my flight home?
ABTA advises arriving at least two hours before departure, because the EES exit check can add time at busy airports.
My flight home might land late because of EES queues. What happens to my transfer?
Give your flight number when you book, so the driver can follow the actual landing time rather than the scheduled one.
How does EES affect the 90/180-day rule?
EES records every entry and exit digitally instead of relying on passport stamps, so days spent in the Schengen area are counted automatically and overstays are flagged.
Do I need ETIAS as well?
Not yet. ETIAS, the EU's separate online travel authorisation, has not launched, so there is nothing to apply for. The EU will announce a start date months in advance; until then, avoid websites that charge for it.
EES is the EU's digital border check for non-EU travellers, fully in use since April 2026. It is not a visa. Checked September 2026; rules can change, so see the EU Travel to Europe site before you travel.
