Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport transfer: the easiest way to get there

Getting from Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport should be the easy part of the journey. With a private transfer it is: you tell us your flight number and your hotel, we confirm the price of the Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport transfer on WhatsApp, and on the day a driver meets you at the arrivals hall and takes you straight to the door. No taxi rank, no ticket machines, no changing between buses with suitcases.

This page covers everything travellers ask about the Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Gatwick Airport is like, what to see there and where to stay, where you meet your driver at Luton Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.

Arriving at Luton Airport (LTN)

London Luton (LTN) is about 55 km north of the centre in Bedfordshire, a single terminal with the M1 running south into London.

A little knowledge of Luton Airport makes the arrival calmer. Note which terminal or hall your flight uses, keep your phone charged for the WhatsApp thread, and expect the driver to be exactly where the confirmation said - by the arrivals exit with a name board, or at the airport's designated meeting point. From there it is a short walk to the car and the Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport drive begins.

Searches for "LTN to Gatwick Airport" or "LTN airport transfer" land here for a reason: LTN is the airport code for Luton Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Gatwick Airport.

Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport at a glance

Vehicles: Sedan (1–3 passengers) and Minivan (1–7 passengers) - Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with room for luggage. Price: fixed for the whole vehicle and agreed on WhatsApp before you travel, tolls and waiting included, nothing to pay the driver on the day. Meeting: at Luton Airport, at the point named in your confirmation, with flight tracking so a delay moves the pickup. Booking: the form on this page or a WhatsApp message; confirmation in writing within minutes, in Arabic or English.

Taxi or private transfer from Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport?

Travellers searching for "Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport taxi cost" usually find a range rather than a number, because taxi fares depend on the meter, the hour and the route. Our private transfer gives you a single fixed price for the whole vehicle, agreed on WhatsApp in advance, so the cost of getting from Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport is known before you land.

For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Gatwick Airport involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.

There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Gatwick Airport, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.

Public transport from Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport: is there a bus, train or metro?

Public transport from Luton Airport runs mainly into London itself: the Elizabeth line and Heathrow Express, the Gatwick Express, the Stansted Express and the Luton train are all fast to a central station; from there the Tube with suitcases means stairs, gaps and crowds, and Wembley, Windsor or an Oxford Street hotel each add a change, which is why families and groups book a car from the terminal door. Reaching Gatwick Airport from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.

Many of our guests have tried the public route into Gatwick Airport once and booked the car ever after. The difference is not only speed but effort: no ticket machines in a foreign language, no stairs with suitcases, no working out the last mile to the hotel. A private Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport transfer starts at the arrivals door and ends at the reception desk, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.

Up to 60 minutes of waiting is included (90 minutes at some airports), and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps your driver informed.

Families get child seats on request, and groups with a lot of luggage are matched to a vehicle with room to spare. Tell us on WhatsApp what you are bringing and we take care of the rest.

Who books the Gatwick Airport transfer

Every one of them books the same way - a WhatsApp message - and gets the same written confirmation.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Gatwick Airport transfers

What guests tell us they value about the Gatwick Airport transfer is the absence of surprises. The price they were quoted is the price they pay. The driver is where the confirmation said. The car is clean and the right size. And the WhatsApp desk that made the booking is still there, in Arabic and English, for the whole trip - for the return, a day out, or a question about Gatwick Airport at any hour.

Pickup options and waiting time

When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:

  • Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
  • Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.

At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.

With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.

Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.

Where do I meet my driver at Luton Airport?

It depends on the airport: some have a fixed meeting point inside arrivals, some a specific exit, and at others the driver waits just beyond customs with a sign carrying your name.

Is a private transfer cheaper than an airport taxi from Luton Airport to Gatwick Airport?

Compare the whole cost, not the starting fare.

With luggage, a family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the easiest and most comfortable way: door to door, no queue, no changes.
