Airport-to-airport transfer

Private hire between Gatwick Airport and Edinburgh Airport

Plan a direct private hire journey from London Gatwick Airport to Edinburgh Airport. This airport-to-airport page keeps the arrival flight, agreed meeting point, passenger and luggage details, onward flight and required terminal arrival time together in one pre-booked transfer request.

This directional journey starts at London Gatwick Airport and ends at Edinburgh Airport. It is not a through-airline connection: the road transfer is a separate private hire booking, and passengers remain responsible for baggage collection, border procedures, terminal changes, airline check-in rules and allowing enough time for the onward flight.

Arrival at Edinburgh Airport

For arrival at Edinburgh Airport (EDI), confirm the airline and departure terminal where available. The requested airport arrival time should be earlier than the flight departure and should reflect the airline's current check-in and baggage deadlines.

Check the onward airline and terminal
Set a required airport arrival time
Allow for check-in and security

Planning the airport connection

If the onward flight is time-critical, give the office the required terminal arrival time as well as the flight departure. This is more useful than providing only the two airport names and helps distinguish the travel target from the flight's final boarding deadline.

Allow a conservative road-transfer margin
Account for baggage and border procedures
Do not treat this as an airside connection

Passenger, luggage and return details

Material changes to a flight, terminal, passenger number or luggage should be reported promptly. A significant change may affect timing, availability, meeting instructions or the vehicle assigned to the transfer.

Confirm passenger and luggage totals
List every requested stop
Book reverse travel as a separate leg

Collection at Gatwick Airport

The driver collection at London Gatwick Airport needs a current flight reference and one practical meeting point. If the arriving flight changes, notify the office promptly; a scheduled landing time by itself does not confirm when the passenger will be ready to leave the terminal.

Provide the arriving flight number
Confirm terminal and meeting method
Keep the passenger mobile available
