Stansted sits to the north-east of London off the M11, the main base for several low-cost airlines. It suits east and north London journeys, and we time the pickup around the M11 and M25 traffic.
The Stansted to London journey covers around 40 miles, typically via the M11. 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.
Stansted to London sees its heaviest traffic on weekday mornings and early evenings, when the M11 and M25 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.
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.
Groups and luggage are worth mentioning at booking rather than working out on the day: a saloon suits up to four people and two large cases comfortably, while an estate, MPV or 8-seater gives more room for extra bags, buggies or sports kit. School holidays and the summer season tend to bring more group and family travel on this kind of journey, so booking a little further ahead helps guarantee the right-sized vehicle at a time that suits you.
Booked this as a single taxi ride? The same fixed fare, driver and vehicle are available for more than one journey:

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.
