Frequently asked questions

When should I book a cruise → Heathrow transfer?+

As soon as your cruise is confirmed. Disembarkation days are busy in Southampton and pre-booked slots fill quickly — especially summer Saturdays and Easter / Christmas. Late bookings (within 24 hours) are subject to driver availability.

What time will my pickup be?+

You'll be assigned a vacate-time by your cruise line (usually staged in 30-minute slots from 07:00). We schedule pickup to match the back-end of your slot so you don't wait in the terminal with luggage.

My ship is delayed into Southampton — do I get charged extra?+

No. Ship tracking is included. If your ship is delayed, your driver's arrival is adjusted automatically. No extra charge for late docking.

Which Heathrow terminal do you drop at?+

Any of them — T2, T3, T4 or T5. Tell us your terminal when booking; we drop directly at the departures level.

Can you handle a group with lots of cruise luggage?+

Yes — our 8-seater MPV takes up to 8 passengers and up to 6 large cruise cases. Larger groups or excess luggage: we coordinate two vehicles in convoy.
