Who does Petersfield to Gatwick

TwentyFour7Cars, based in Petersfield, lists Gatwick as one of the airports it serves most often and says it runs around the clock, which matters for early departures. It says it monitors flights for return pick-ups, so a delayed landing does not leave you stranded, and on its FAQ page says it does not charge extra for a delayed arrival. For a group, it has an eight-seater minibus. Other firms whose own websites list this include A2B Taxis Petersfield, 14U Cars Petersfield, Billycars, Petersfield Airport Specialists, Richard B Cars, Duke Taxi Service, ABC Petersfield Taxi and Nick Troth Private Hire; the full list of Petersfield taxi firms has their details.

Car or train?

There is no direct rail service from the town to Gatwick: the train means at least one change with all of your bags. That is why a door-to-door car is the usual choice for families, for anyone with a dawn flight, and for groups who can share the cost of one vehicle.

North or South Terminal

Gatwick has two terminals, North and South, linked by a free shuttle. Your booking or airline app says which one you need. Give it to the driver when you book, along with your flight number for the return.

What to give the firm

Your pick-up address and postcode, the date, the terminal, your flight time, the number of passengers including children, and how many cases. TwentyFour7Cars says it does not supply child seats, so bring your own; it says it will look after a seat until your return journey.

What to confirm

Ask whether the quoted price is fixed, what happens if the flight is delayed on the way home, and how you contact the driver on arrival. Get the pick-up time, address and price confirmed in writing. Our airport transfer booking checklist goes through each point.
