Bournemouth ↔ Southampton — the route
The drive
Bournemouth to central Southampton is roughly 33 miles via the M27 / A31 / A35 — typically 50 to 75 minutes depending on traffic through the New Forest stretch. The A31 between Ringwood and Cadnam is the most common variable.
Pickups we cover
Bournemouth railway station, Bournemouth Pier, Bournemouth International Centre (BIC), Bournemouth Hospital (Castle Lane), Bournemouth Airport (BOH), the Royal Bath Hotel, Marriott Highcliff, plus Christchurch (BH23) and Poole (BH15) addresses. Cruise embarkation runs to Ocean and Mayflower terminals are a daily fixture.
Postcodes and zone pricing
BH postcodes carry our £15 out-of-area pickup uplift — the highest tier — reflecting the round-trip distance. Bournemouth Airport (BOH) is a popular handoff for early-morning Heathrow/Gatwick onward transfers. Airport prices to LHR, LGW and STN are quoted as fixed totals online with the uplift already included.
