The route
From Potters Bar (EN6) the natural line out is the A1(M) J1 and the M25 J24, joining A1 Holloway Road, then Drayton Park for the last part of the journey. Door to door it works out at roughly 16 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 35 min off-peak becomes 55 min when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
Where we meet you at Emirates Stadium
Drayton Park or the Hornsey Road side; Queensland Road and Hornsey Road fill quickly after full time. Islington runs a matchday parking and road-closure zone around the ground, so the pickup point sits a few streets out on Hornsey Road.
Address: Hornsey Road, Highbury, N7 7AJ.
Pickups across Potters Bar
Pickups cover the whole of Potters Bar and the EN6 districts across Hertfordshire. That includes home addresses, hotels, offices and the station forecourt.
Potters Bar sits on the A1(M) J1, M25 J24 corridor, which is what makes this journey predictable rather than a gamble on the day.
When to leave
Doors are usually an hour before the match starts. Allowing 55 min for the drive from Potters Bar plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night.
Getting back from Emirates Stadium
Book both legs together and the driver is in position before the match ends. Getting out of Emirates Stadium is the part that costs people an hour; this is how you skip it. The return to Potters Bar is the same £55.

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.
