Fixed-fare Heathrow to Gatwick transfers with flight tracking, meet & greet and 24/7 cover — your price confirmed before you book.
Fixed fares, professional drivers and 24/7 cover across London and beyond.
Airport Move connects Heathrow and Gatwick with a fixed-fare Heathrow to Gatwick taxi, agreed up front, a licensed driver, and door-to-door service around the clock — with free flight tracking on any leg that starts or ends at an airport.
Our private Heathrow to Gatwick taxi and minicab service covers around 45 miles and is one of the journeys we are asked for most, so we know it well. Book ahead to lock your fare and, on the airport end, your driver tracks the flight and adjusts to your real arrival time.
At roughly 45 miles, usually via the M25, the Heathrow to Gatwick journey — and the return Gatwick to Heathrow — is planned around the day's traffic by a driver who knows the route. One-off or regular, this Heathrow to Gatwick airport transfer stays a fixed price with no meters or surge pricing.
Gatwick lies roughly to the south-south-east of Heathrow, a journey of about 45 miles by road.

Heathrow is the UK's busiest airport, in west London with five terminals along the M4 and A4 corridor.
The Heathrow to Gatwick journey covers around 45 miles, typically via the M25. Your driver plans the route and the timing around the traffic on the day, and on airport legs we track your flight so the pickup matches your real arrival time. The fare stays fixed whether the roads are quiet or busy.
Plenty of people use “taxi” loosely for any hired car, but a licensed minicab is a distinct, regulated category from a black cab: no hailing on the street, a booking made ahead of time, and separate private hire licensing for both car and driver. This transfer runs on that same basis — booked ahead, fully licensed, fare fixed before you set off. On this route, Gatwick lies to the south-south-east of Heathrow, around 45 miles by road — and whichever direction you are travelling, the licensed, pre-booked model is identical.
The busiest times for Heathrow to Gatwick are weekday rush hours, when the M4, A4 and M25 carry commuter traffic alongside airport and local journeys. If you are travelling before 8am or after 5pm on a weekday, it pays to leave a little earlier; evenings, weekends and school holidays tend to move more freely. We plan the timing either way, so the fixed fare and the pickup time both hold.
Your pickup point is confirmed ahead of time, removing any guesswork on the day, and flight tracking on airport journeys means the car adjusts to when you actually land rather than when the schedule says you should. The usual airport steps still apply either side of your drive — check-in and security, or passport control and baggage reclaim — and the included waiting time is there to cover them.
Telling us your group size and luggage at booking, rather than leaving it to the day, means the right vehicle is waiting: a saloon for up to four people and two large cases, or an estate, MPV or 8-seater for more bags, buggies or equipment. Journeys like this get busier in school holidays and summer, so booking ahead is the simplest way to secure the size of car you need.
Booked this as a single taxi ride? The same fixed fare, driver and vehicle are available for more than one journey:
An executive car with a professional driver for business trips and special occasions.
A company account for corporate airport travel.
Airport meet & greet, if you would rather be met inside arrivals.
A bigger group travelling together with minibus transfers.
Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
A day out further afield with a private tour.
