Your driver waits outside the airport, tracks your flight and stays in touch, and only drives into the short-stay car park once you have cleared passport control and collected your luggage.

Taxi or train?

Tunbridge Wells to Heathrow: taxi or train?

There is no direct train from Tunbridge Wells to Heathrow. The rail route means getting into London first and then changing for a Heathrow service, usually with luggage and at least one change of platform. For one traveller with hand luggage that can work. For couples, families or anyone with cases, a taxi from your door is usually simpler, and one fixed price covers everyone in the car.

Our car takes you door to door via the A21 and M25, normally in 60 to 80 minutes depending on traffic, and drops you at the right terminal. See also our guide to the Gatwick taxi vs train comparison.

Planning your pickup

When should your Heathrow taxi collect you?

  • Allow for the drive: 60 to 80 minutes from Tunbridge Wells, longer in the morning and evening rush on the M25.
  • Allow for the airport: check your airline's advice. Many ask you to arrive around 2 hours before short-haul and 3 hours before long-haul flights.
  • Tell us your terminal (2, 3, 4 or 5) and flight number when you book, and we will suggest a pickup time.
  • Coming home: your driver tracks your flight and leaves later if it lands late, at no extra charge.
