Quick answer

Airport Move links Gatwick and Newham with fixed-price transfers, day or night. The journey is roughly 35 miles by road, usually around 40–65 minutes depending on traffic. We follow your flight, meet you with help for your luggage, and confirm the fare upfront so there is no meter and no surge pricing to worry about.

With London City on the doorstep at the Royal Docks, Newham transfers are some of our shortest. Book ahead, fix the fare, and your driver is ready whether you are flying out or coming back to Stratford.

Coming back to Newham or setting off for your flight, a transfer booked in advance keeps the whole trip simple and door-to-door. Your driver knows the Gatwick–Newham roads, works around the traffic, and on arrivals times the pickup to when you actually land. Newham lies roughly to the north-north-east of Gatwick, and at around 35 miles it is a longer-distance run, so we build in extra time for traffic.

Good to Know

What actually is a minicab?

In everyday London speech, people say “taxi” for almost any hired car, but a licensed minicab is legally distinct from a black cab: it cannot be hailed on the street and must be booked in advance, with the driver and vehicle separately licensed for private hire. A pre-booked transfer like this one works on exactly that basis — agreed in advance, licensed throughout, with the fare fixed before you travel. On this specific route, Newham lies to the north-north-east of Gatwick, a journey of around 35 miles — a longer-distance run, so we build in extra time for traffic compared with our other Gatwick routes, though the licensed, pre-booked model is identical whichever direction you are travelling.

Planning Ahead

Planning your Gatwick to Newham journey

the M23 and M25 are at their busiest on weekday mornings and early evenings around Gatwick to Newham, as commuter traffic overlaps with airport and local trips. Early or late weekday journeys benefit from extra time in the schedule; quieter periods fall on evenings, weekends and school holidays. Whatever the traffic, your driver plans the route in advance and the fare does not change.

Nothing about the pickup is left to chance: the meeting point is agreed in advance, and on airport legs we track the flight so the timing matches your real arrival, not the timetable. Plan for the usual airport process around the journey itself — security and check-in outbound, passport control and baggage inbound — which is exactly what the free waiting allowance in your fare is there for.

Sort out group size and luggage when you book, not on the day: four passengers and two large cases fit a saloon well, while an estate, MPV or 8-seater handles more — extra suitcases, pushchairs or sports bags included. This kind of journey sees more demand over school holidays and summer, so booking with some notice makes it easier to get the vehicle sized correctly.
