Gatwick, south of London on the Surrey/Sussex border, is the UK’s second-busiest airport and runs from two terminals — North and South — linked by a shuttle. Its position off the M23 makes it the natural gateway for the South East and the south coast, as well as a long but common transfer to and from central London. MiniCabFinder lets you compare an estimated fare before booking.
Because the two terminals are a shuttle ride apart, telling your taxi partner the right one matters. Journeys split between the London run up the M23/M25 and shorter hops to Brighton, Crawley and the Sussex towns — each with quite different fares.
North and South terminals each have their own taxi provision and are connected by a free inter-terminal shuttle. Confirm your terminal when you book: being dropped at the wrong one means an extra shuttle trip with your luggage.
Gatwick has North and South terminals linked by a shuttle. Check your airline’s terminal and tell the licensed taxi partner when you book, so you’re collected at the right one.
It’s roughly 28 miles up the M23 and M25, typically an hour or more depending on traffic. Compare an estimate before booking, as it’s one of the longer London airport runs.
