## The route

From Central London (WC2, W1, SW1, EC1) the natural line out is the A4 and the A40 and the A2, joining M27 J12, then M275 into the port for the last part of the journey. Door to door it works out at roughly 75.5 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 1h 50m off-peak becomes 2h 30m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.

---

## Where we meet you at Portsmouth Cruise Terminal

The International Port terminal building, at the baggage drop. The M275 into the port is the only approach and it is busy on turnaround mornings, so we aim to arrive before the coach wave.

**Address:** Portsmouth International Port, Rudmore, PO2 8SP.

## 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](https://travel-europe.europa.eu/ees) before you travel.
