Greenwich to Heathrow Airport Taxi
Landing at Heathrow Airport? Let us take the stress off
Your driver is waiting with a name board the moment you come through customs into arrivals – not in a car park, not on the phone. We track the flight, so a late landing costs you nothing, and the first 60 minutes after the plane lands are free waiting time. Luggage trolleys, a child seat, a wheelchair-friendly car: tell us when you book and it is ready.
SIM card and money on the way. Still carrying your own currency? That is fine: every car takes cards and contactless, so you need no pounds in hand for the journey. If you want a UK SIM or some cash, say so and your driver will point you to the kiosks in arrivals (SIM cards: WHSmith and the Sim Local / Simpoint kiosks in every arrivals hall; currency: Travelex and ICE desks in all terminals (airport rates are the worst in London – change £20–£50 for the first day and the rest in town)) or, usually cheaper, stop at a supermarket, Post Office or bank on the route. Our local drivers know where the fair rates and the working cash machines are – trust them to sort it in minutes.

How we get from Greenwich to Heathrow
From Greenwich the driver usually takes the A2 and South Circular west, or the Blackwall Tunnel and the A12 to the North Circular, depending on the traffic.
Heathrow has four terminals and two main approaches, so the driver confirms yours from the flight number: Junction 14 for Terminals 4 and 5, Junction 15 and the M4 spur for Terminals 2 and 3.
- About 30 miles, usually 45–70 min
- The Heathrow drop-off charge included in the fixed fare
- The driver checks traffic before setting off and picks the quicker route
- Same price day or night, no surge
Timing your Heathrow flight from Greenwich
Heathrow advises arriving two hours before short-haul and three before long-haul flights. The M25 between Junctions 7 and 15 is the busiest stretch in the country, so we build in a margin.
Early flights
Before 06:00 the roads are clear; allow the shorter end of the journey time plus airport time.
Weekday mornings
07:00–10:00 is the slowest window on the M25 and the South Circular. Add 30 minutes.
Friday afternoons
The M25 anticlockwise is heavy from 14:00. For evening long-haul flights, leave early.
Give us your flight number and we set the pickup time and confirm it by text. Night and early-morning pickups cost the same as daytime ones.
Is a pre-booked car worth it from Greenwich?
By public transport you would start at Greenwich station and travel into central London and then the Elizabeth line or the Heathrow Express from Paddington. It works for one person with light luggage in the daytime, but it usually means at least one change with cases, and the first trains do not suit early departures.
App cars are least predictable exactly when airport runs need them: early in the morning and at peak times, when surge pricing can take a 30-mile trip well above our fixed £69.
With us the job goes to a named driver confirmed the evening before, the price is agreed in writing and cannot change, and airport charges are already handled.
- Fixed fare agreed before you travel
- Saloon (sedan), executive, MPV, 8-seater or 9-seater minibus
- Free child seats and boosters
- Card, cash or invoice with nothing added
- Licensed, DBS-checked drivers

Your 60 minutes' free waiting starts at touchdown. If passport control or baggage reclaim is slow, message the driver and we wait.
Where to meet. The driver waits in the short-stay car park or the airport's designated pick-up area and texts you the exact spot. Meet and greet with a name board in arrivals is available on request.
The run home is the same route in reverse, dropping you at your door in Greenwich or anywhere in Greenwich town centre, Maze Hill, Westcombe Park, East Greenwich, Greenwich Peninsula and Deptford.

EU Entry/Exit System (EES): what travellers ask
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.
Does EES registration cost anything?
No. EES registration is free and happens at the border. Be wary of websites that charge for "EES registration"; there is nothing to buy in advance.
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.
