How we get you to Luton
Luton is north of London, in Bedfordshire. From Chessington, the driver joins the M25 at junction 9 and travels anticlockwise past Heathrow and Watford to junction 21a, then takes the M1 north to junction 10 and the airport road. It is around 50 to 55 miles and typically takes 65 to 80 minutes. Leave extra time on weekday mornings, when the stretch between junctions 14 and 16 is often slow.
Many Luton departures are early, so a 3am or 4am start from KT9 is common. We take bookings around the clock and plan the pickup from your check-in time, not just the flight time.
Drop-off and pickup at Luton
Luton has a single terminal. Cars set down in the drop-off area close to the terminal, which carries a short-stay charge, and pickups use the airport's designated area or car park. Ask us what is included in your fixed fare. If you choose meet and greet, your driver comes into the arrivals hall to find you.
Luton Airport cabs to Chessington
Getting home from Luton by train means the Luton DART shuttle to Luton Airport Parkway, a Thameslink train into London and a further connection south. With bags and tired children that is a long evening. Our Luton Airport cabs to Chessington track your flight and take you straight home, whatever time you land.
Long-distance cabs in Luton
From Luton our long-distance cabs also reach Milton Keynes, Bedford, St Albans and the M1 corridor, and link Luton with Stansted or Heathrow when your travel plans involve more than one airport.
Taxi price comparison for Luton
Luton is popular with budget airlines, so it makes sense to compare the cost of getting there. Weigh our fixed fare against train tickets, the DART fare and the hassle of crossing London at dawn. For two or more people, especially families, a car is often competitive. A Minibus Taxi suits a family of five or six, and a 7 seater takes up to eight with plenty of cases.
Corporate accounts for Luton
Teams travelling from Luton for business can use a corporate account, with journeys booked by approved staff and billed together. We can collect visiting colleagues from Luton and bring them to offices in Chessington, Surbiton or Kingston.
Tips for a smooth Luton trip
Many Luton flights are early and short-haul, so allow time for security queues at peak holiday times. Check your airline's baggage allowance before you travel, and let us know if you have oversized luggage, so the right vehicle is sent.
Luton for groups and holidays
Luton is a popular airport for holiday groups, stag and hen trips and family breaks in Europe. A single 7 seater taxi carries up to eight passengers and six large cases from Chessington on one fixed fare. Book early for school holiday weekends, when larger vehicles are in high demand.
