Minibus Hire With Driver to Gatwick Airport

North or South

Gatwick’s two terminals are linked by an automated shuttle that takes a few minutes. It is perfectly usable, but doing it with eleven people and a full set of cases is exactly the friction you booked a minibus to avoid. Your terminal is on your booking confirmation, and as at Heathrow, airlines do move between them.

Drop off charges

Gatwick charges for terminal forecourt drop off, as Heathrow does. Confirm whether that sits inside your quote. The long stay and mid stay car parks are cheaper but add a shuttle at the end, which reintroduces the problem you were avoiding.

Timing from London and the South

From central London the M23 route typically needs two and a half hours before a short haul departure and three before long haul. Gatwick draws heavily from Sussex, Surrey and Kent as well, and from those areas the journey is usually shorter and more predictable than the London run.

Where Gatwick groups usually come from

Alongside London, the airport serves a wide catchment across the South East. Pick ups from Brighton, Eastbourne, Chichester, Maidstone, Guildford and Croydon are all routine, and often cheaper than the equivalent central London transfer because the roads are more predictable.
