The journey between Southend and Slough is roughly 70 miles by road, typically via the A127 and A13.

Slough sits roughly to the west of Southend. By distance across all the areas we cover from Southend, this route is among the more distant areas we cover from Southend — the 61st shortest of the 64 areas we cover from Southend, by road distance — useful context if you are weighing up Slough against a nearby postcode for the same trip.
Distance and time are approximate, measured by road and intended as a guide only. For airport pickups we track your flight and time the journey to your landing, building in extra for traffic so you are not left waiting.
The Southend–Slough run is roughly 70 miles, usually along the A127 and A13, with Slough sitting to the west of the airport. Slough is a major Berkshire town just west of London, a business centre with the Elizabeth line and quick access to the M4.
Southend Airport is east of London in Essex, a smaller airport with its own railway station and a relaxed feel.
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, Slough lies to the west of Southend, a journey of around 70 miles — among the more distant areas we cover from Southend compared with our other Southend routes, though the licensed, pre-booked model is identical whichever direction you are travelling.
Traffic around Southend to Slough builds fastest on weekday mornings and early evenings, when commuters share the A127 and A13 with airport and local traffic. A journey before 8am or after 5pm on a weekday is when it is worth allowing extra time; outside those windows, and at weekends, the roads are usually calmer. Either way, our drivers build a buffer into every pickup so a slow patch of traffic does not turn into a rushed one.
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.
It helps to flag your group size and luggage when you book rather than on the day — a saloon comfortably takes four passengers and two large cases, and an estate, MPV or 8-seater covers anything bigger, from extra suitcases to pushchairs. Demand for this kind of trip tends to rise in school holidays and over summer, so an earlier booking makes it easier to lock in the vehicle 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 chauffeur car 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.
