Enter your details and we'll confirm your price.
Fixed fares, professional drivers and 24/7 cover across London and beyond.
Airportmove provides fixed-fare transfers between London and the Port of Dover, with space for all your cruise luggage and pickups timed to your sailing. We also run airport-to-port journeys, collecting you from Heathrow or Gatwick and driving straight to the cruise terminal. The fare is agreed before you book.
Sailing from Dover usually means an early, luggage-heavy start, so a door-to-gangway car at a fixed fare takes the pressure off. We help with the bags, plan the run around your check-in time, and there is no airport-style parking to sort at the other end.
Dover sits on the Kent coast, roughly 80 miles south-east of London, usually reached via the M20 or M2. It is a major departure point for cruises and a long enough drive that timing and comfort matter. Our drivers know the cruise terminal and the routes that avoid the worst of the motorway and port traffic, so you arrive relaxed and on schedule.
Booking takes about two minutes and your fare is fixed from the start. Here is how a journey works, step by step.
Enter your pickup and drop-off for your Dover Cruise journey on our booking page, or call us. You get an instant, fixed price — no meters and no surge pricing.
Choose a saloon, estate, MPV or 8-seater, add child seats or meet and greet, and confirm in under a minute. We send your driver's name, number and car before pickup.
On airport journeys we track your flight by number and adjust the pickup to your real landing time. Your driver can wait in arrivals with a name board and help with your luggage.
Your driver takes you directly to your destination and you pay online, by card in the car, or on account — always at the fixed fare you were quoted.

Dover handles both cross-Channel ferries and cruise sailings, so it is worth double-checking which terminal your cruise line uses before you travel — the port has more than one, and a driver briefed on the right one avoids any confusion on arrival. From London, the M20 and A2 are the usual routes, and as with any motorway run out of the capital, weekday rush hour is the time most likely to add to the journey, so an early start on embarkation day is generally the safer choice.
Cruise transfers tend to involve more luggage than a typical airport run — often a full-sized case per person rather than a single bag — so it is worth confirming your group size and luggage at booking rather than assuming a standard saloon will do. An estate, MPV or 8-seater is usually the better fit once you are travelling as a couple or family with a week or two's worth of luggage between you.
Cruise lines generally ask passengers to arrive well ahead of the sailing time for check-in and baggage drop, so building that buffer into your pickup time, rather than timing it to the departure itself, is the safest way to avoid a rushed embarkation.
The fare is fixed and quoted upfront from your exact address to Dover's cruise terminal, set before you travel. Get an instant price online or by phone, including luggage and waiting time.
