How long does a London airport to UK cruise port transfer take?+
Heathrow → Southampton ~1h 20m via the M3. Heathrow → Dover ~2h via the M25/M2. Heathrow → Harwich ~2h. Heathrow → Portsmouth ~1h 30m. Heathrow → Tilbury ~1h. By private car direct — no train changes, no luggage hassle.

No — book an Estate (4 large bags + 2 carry-ons) or MPV-7 (7 large bags + 7 carry-ons). The Saloon comfortably fits 2 large bags + 2 carry-ons. Cruise luggage runs heavier and bulkier than airport luggage; for transatlantic crossings most couples up-size to MPV-7.
Do I tip the driver in the UK?+
No — tipping is not expected in the UK. The price quoted at booking is the all-in price. A small tip is appreciated for exceptional service but never required and never solicited.
What if my flight is delayed?+
Free flight tracking — the driver auto-adjusts the pickup time. No late-arrival charge, no missed-pickup fee. For severe delays threatening your cruise sailing, we can skip any planned sightseeing stops and go direct to the terminal.
How early should I land at Heathrow for an afternoon cruise sailing?+
For a 4pm Southampton all-aboard, land no later than 9am (allows 1–2h Border Control, ~1h 20m transfer, 90-min Cunard/RC/Princess pre-boarding window). For peak-season weekends or Disney Dover sailings, land by 8am.
Do you meet me at arrivals with a name board?+

Can I pay in USD or pre-pay by US credit card?+
All bookings are pre-paid online by card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express). Stripe converts at the live exchange rate at checkout — you see the GBP price up front with no FX surprise. No cash needed anywhere on the journey; the driver receives a paid GBP receipt for your travel records.
Can I add a Stonehenge or Windsor stop on the way?+
Yes — booked as a sightseeing-transfer (Heathrow → Stonehenge → Windsor → Southampton). Adds ~5 hours to the day, fixed price by vehicle class. Popular with US Cunard QM2, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Celebrity and Oceania passengers on embarkation day.
Can I book the embarkation and disembarkation transfer together?+
Yes — both legs can be booked online in one transaction with the same fixed-price guarantee. The disembarkation leg uses AIS ship tracking so the driver meets you at the actual dock time rather than the scheduled one. First 60 minutes of dockside waiting is free.
