Hammersmith, in west London, is a riverside transport hub with its flyover, Tube interchange and the Apollo. Its position on the A4 corridor makes Heathrow runs quick and direct. We run fixed-fare transfers from Hammersmith to every airport, tracking your flight on the way back.
By road distance, Heathrow is usually the shortest run from Hammersmith, though the fastest journey on the day depends on traffic and which motorway corridor you take — a numerically closer airport can still be the slower option if it means crossing London rather than joining a direct route. Here is roughly how each of the six compares, in normal traffic:
Of all the areas we cover, Hammersmith ranks 19th closest to Heathrow out of 64 by road distance — a genuine relative marker, not just a raw mileage figure.
Heathrow — about 14 miles (35–55 min by road); Hammersmith lies to the east of it.
London City — about 17 miles (25–40 min by road); Hammersmith lies to the west of it.
Gatwick — about 30 miles (40–60 min by road); Hammersmith lies to the north of it.
Luton — about 35 miles (40–65 min by road); Hammersmith lies to the south-south-east of it.
Stansted — about 40 miles (50–80 min by road); Hammersmith lies to the south-west of it.
Southend — about 50 miles (60–95 min by road); Hammersmith lies to the west of it.
Unlike a black cab, a minicab cannot legally pick up a passenger who simply flags it down — every trip has to be arranged beforehand, with the driver and the car both carrying their own private hire licence. Booking with Airport Move follows that rule to the letter: the fare and the time are fixed before you travel, and a licensed driver turns up at the agreed moment rather than being hailed in passing. In Hammersmith specifically, Heathrow is the closest of the six by road — roughly 14 miles away, with Hammersmith lying to the east of it — which is often why local minicab bookings here lean that way, though a fixed-fare car from Hammersmith reaches every London airport just as reliably.
Hammersmith sees its heaviest traffic on weekday mornings and early evenings, when the main approach roads are shared between commuters and airport travellers. If your journey falls in one of those windows, building in some extra time is sensible; outside them, and at weekends, the roads are typically quieter. Either way, the route is planned around the traffic on the day, not around a fixed schedule that ignores it.
We confirm where your driver will meet you well before travel day, and for airport connections the flight is tracked so the pickup follows your actual landing time. The normal airport routine still sits either side of the drive — check-in and security if you are departing, passport control and baggage reclaim if you are arriving — and both are covered by the waiting time built into the fare.
A quick note on group size and luggage at booking saves any surprise on the day: a saloon is comfortable for four with two large cases, and an estate, MPV or 8-seater takes the extra bags, buggies or kit that a bigger trip brings. Since school holidays and summer tend to be busier for journeys like this, booking a little ahead makes securing the right vehicle straightforward.
Most Hammersmith bookings with us start as an airport transfer, but the same fixed-fare minicab and driver cover plenty more of your travel:
A regular commute or the school run, billed to a business or family account.
A wedding, night out or event transfer, planned to your schedule.
A car kept at your disposal with hourly hire.
A connection on to a cruise port or hotel.
Something sent rather than someone carried, with courier delivery.
Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
