Where we meet you
The signed taxi rendezvous for the meeting - it moves between the Motor Circuit and the Racecourse.
Goodwood's lanes are narrow and one-way under event traffic management, so the rendezvous changes by event: tell us if it is the Festival of Speed, Revival or a raceday. Getting in is normally straightforward via A27 Chichester bypass, then Claypit Lane; it is getting out afterwards that costs people time, which is why the return leg is worth booking at the same time.
Getting to Goodwood
The usual approach is A27 Chichester bypass, then Claypit Lane. We track the raceday schedule and set the pickup time around it rather than around a fixed clock, so a late finish or an early doors time is handled before the day.

EES and your airport transfer
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.
