How pickup works

Call us when you've landed, we come round.

We don't wait inside the terminal with a name board. You give us your flight number, we monitor the inbound flight, and we wait nearby. Once you've cleared customs and have your luggage, send a text or call — we drive round to the short-stay car park and meet you there. Usually 5 minutes from your call.

Free wait time: 60 minutes from your scheduled pickup. After that it's £15 per additional hour, billed only if you ask us to stay.
