Where Luton airport fits in

Luton airport is on the eastern side of the town of Luton, in Bedfordshire, a short distance from junction 10 of the M1. For north and north-west London, including areas such as Hampstead, Barnet and Harrow, it is often the most convenient airport to reach by road. From central and south London, the route has to work its way north through the city before it meets the motorway, so plan a little more time.

Journey times depend on traffic and time of day, and the southern end of the M1 can be busy at peak hours. For departures, we will suggest a pickup time that allows for this, and our chauffeurs know the approaches to the airport well.

Luton also serves a wide area outside London. We regularly quote for journeys to and from St Albans, Harpenden, Hemel Hempstead, Watford and Milton Keynes. Enter your own address and the quote will reflect it.

Pickups and drop-offs at Luton

Luton has a single passenger terminal. Road access to the front of the terminal is controlled, and private cars and taxis use designated drop-off and pick-up areas, so the exact spot your chauffeur uses depends on the airport's current arrangements. For arrivals, we remove the guesswork: your chauffeur parks and comes to meet you inside the terminal with a name board, then walks you to the car.

Our team checks your flight status before pickup. If your flight is delayed, the chauffeur's timing moves with it. The free waiting time and parking arrangements that apply at Luton are shown on this page, so you know what to expect before you land.

Many Luton flights are short European routes run by low-cost airlines, and schedules can shift at short notice. If your flight is cancelled or rebooked, let us know the new details and we will rearrange the pickup where we can.

Flying from a different airport on the way back? That is fine. Many customers leave from Luton and return to Stansted or Gatwick; just request each journey separately.

Questions about Luton transfers

Where will my chauffeur meet me at Luton airport?

Inside the terminal, after you collect your luggage. Your chauffeur holds a name board and then walks with you to the car, so you do not need to find a pick-up zone yourself.

Is Luton a good choice if I live in north London?

Often, yes. Luton is north of London near the M1, which makes it convenient for many north and north-west London addresses. Journey times depend on traffic and time of day.

Can you take me from Luton to Milton Keynes or St Albans?

Yes. We cover journeys across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire. Enter your destination and we will quote for it.

What if my Luton flight is cancelled and I am rebooked?

Send us your new flight details as soon as you have them. We will rearrange the pickup where we can and confirm the new time with you.
