What's Included in Your Fare

No Hidden Extras

The £5 pick-up and drop-off charge shown alongside each fare above is already part of the total — it isn't sprung on you after the journey.

Fixed, Not Metered

Your price is agreed before you travel by phone, WhatsApp or the quote form, so it isn't affected by traffic delays or surge pricing on the day.

SMS Confirmation

Every booking is confirmed by SMS with your fixed fare and pick-up time, so you have it in writing ahead of your journey.

We don't currently have a single published policy for flight-delay charges or waiting time to state on this page — if this applies to your journey, please call us directly and we'll agree the arrangement with you rather than leaving it unstated.

Fares & Booking — Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Call or text us as soon as you know your flight is delayed so we can adjust your pick-up time accordingly. We don't have a single rigid published policy for every delay scenario, so the best approach is always to contact us directly and we'll work out the right pick-up time with you rather than leaving you to guess.

Is a taxi cheaper than Uber for an airport transfer from Cranbrook?

Ride-hailing apps like Uber tend to have patchier coverage in rural parts of Kent such as Cranbrook than in cities, so availability can't be relied on. A pre-booked, fixed-price taxi agreed before you travel is often more cost-effective than a metered fare for longer journeys, since the price is confirmed upfront with no surge pricing.

Do you accept card payments or is it cash only?

Call or ask when you book to confirm accepted payment methods for your specific journey, since this can vary by booking. We'd rather confirm this directly with you than guess incorrectly on the website.

Are there any hidden charges on top of the fare?

Our published fares already include the £5 pick-up and drop-off charge shown alongside each route, so that figure is part of the total rather than an extra you discover later. Call or use the quote form for a full fixed price before you travel, covering your exact pick-up point and vehicle.

How far in advance should I book my airport taxi?

There's no fixed minimum notice, but booking at least the day before is recommended, especially for early morning flights. Booking ahead helps guarantee a vehicle is available at your chosen pick-up time. For same-day or short-notice bookings, call directly to check availability.
