Your address makes the Gatwick fare meaningful
“Taxi to Gatwick” describes a destination, not a complete price. The useful quote starts at the door where you will wait: a home, hotel reception or workplace entrance. Enter that address, the travel date and collection time, then add everyone and everything travelling in the vehicle.
KUVER shows available journey and vehicle options before you sign in. Compare the capacities and fare, review the terms, then continue when you are ready to book. Keep the resulting reference: checking a price and reserving a car are separate steps.
Price the actual trip
Use the full address and include any additional collection stops.
Check the complete fare
Clarify airport access, waiting and requested extras before confirming.
Keep the confirmation
Check the date, collection time, destination and passenger contact details.
From Crawley streets to Sussex towns: check the whole pickup
A collection in Three Bridges, Maidenbower or Pound Hill needs a precise address, even when the airport is nearby. For hotels and business sites, agree the entrance you can reach with luggage. For village properties, a postcode may need a house name or access instructions to identify the right door.
From Horley, Redhill, Reigate, Horsham, East Grinstead, Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill, Brighton or Hove, enter the actual starting point to check a Gatwick quote. These are journey examples, not a promise of a car at every address or time. If the screen cannot offer a suitable option, call KUVER on 01293 699909 to check the request.
Taxi, train or parking? Compare the same amount of travel
For a holiday, compare an outward and return taxi with parking for the whole stay, fuel and any connecting travel. For a train, count tickets for the entire party and the cost of getting to the station. Include the practical work of changes and moving cases, rather than choosing from a headline price alone.
A direct private hire journey can suit a group with luggage or a collection far from a station, while rail may work well for another itinerary. Check prices and current services for your own dates. No transport choice is always cheapest, and an advertised fare for a different route does not settle the comparison.
Turn the airline’s arrival deadline into a collection plan
Start with when your airline requires you at the airport. Work backwards through the road journey and a traffic allowance, keeping bag drop and boarding deadlines in mind. Flight departure time, airport arrival time and taxi collection time are three different points in the plan.
If train disruption changes the plan, check the revised taxi journey and confirm a vehicle before relying on it. For overnight travel, read the calendar date alongside the time. Contact KUVER promptly if a confirmed collection needs changing; do not assume a quote or an earlier message holds a replacement car.
Match the car to the complete load
Count the whole party, then count the bags separately. A car with enough seats may still lack space for several large cases, a pushchair or sports equipment. Use the luggage and passenger capacities shown with the quote, and ask the team to check unusual items.
For a group collected from two addresses, give the combined load and all stops before confirming. Discuss child seats or help entering and leaving the vehicle in advance. Equipment, a particular vehicle and assistance arrangements need confirmation for the journey you are booking.
One booking record for everyone travelling
Arrange the journey through the website, iPhone or Android passenger app, or by phone. If booking for a relative or colleague, make sure the traveller has the confirmation and a contact number that works on the day. Check the full itinerary together so the passenger and booker are following the same plan.
If a booking result is unclear, check for a reference or contact KUVER before submitting another request. For the journey home, provide the return details separately and check which legs appear on the confirmation. Use the terminal guides below for the departure or collection instructions that apply to each flight.

24 answers across 6 topics
Understanding your airport quote
What should I compare when choosing a taxi to Gatwick?
Compare the same collection address, date, time, passenger count and luggage load. Then check the total journey price, airport access arrangements and amendment or waiting terms. A low starting price is not a useful comparison if it describes a different vehicle or route.
Why can two Gatwick quotes from the same town differ?
A town name can cover several miles, and the collection time, extra stops and vehicle can change the trip. Enter the full address each time. Compare like-for-like details before assuming that a difference is simply a higher price for the same journey.
Is a displayed price a confirmed airport booking?
No. A quote shows the options returned for the details you entered. Complete the booking steps and check for a KUVER reference and confirmation before relying on the reservation. Keep the confirmed itinerary available for the day of travel.
How can I check airport charges without paying twice?
Review how airport access is treated in the quote and ask KUVER if it is unclear. A charge for the vehicle entering the airport and your taxi booking are related but separate items. Do not make an additional payment against a driver’s registration without agreeing it with KUVER.
Planning the complete journey
Should I compare a taxi with parking for the whole holiday?
Add both taxi legs when comparing with airport parking for the full stay, fuel and any connecting transport. Consider the party size and bags as well as cost. A one-way taxi quote and a week’s parking price describe different amounts of travel.
What should I include when comparing a taxi with a train?
Count tickets for everyone, the journey to your starting station and any changes with luggage. Compare those with the vehicle quote for the same travelling party. Check current train services and allow time at the airport whichever transport you choose.
Can I plan a taxi as a backup for rail disruption?
You can check a quote once you know the alternative collection address and time. A quote does not hold a vehicle while you decide. If you need the backup, confirm availability and the booking before cancelling another plan you depend on.
What if my flight itinerary gives times in another time zone?
Use the local collection date and time for the UK road journey. Keep that separate from an overseas arrival time printed elsewhere on the itinerary. If you are unsure which date to enter, clarify it with KUVER before confirming.
Collection addresses and route details
Can I check a Gatwick fare from a village or rural address?
Enter the full property address to check the route and available quotes. For a lane, shared drive or hard-to-find entrance, contact KUVER with practical access information when arranging the trip. A price for the nearest town may not describe your actual collection.
What should I enter if my postcode covers several buildings?
Select the correct street and property, then check the address shown on the booking. Add or agree entrance instructions where needed. Avoid choosing a nearby building simply to continue: it can change where the driver expects to meet you.
Can our airport journey include pickups from two homes?
Request all collection stops before confirming and give the passenger and luggage totals for the entire trip. Ask KUVER to check the route, timing and vehicle. A single-address quote should not be treated as an agreement for additional collections.
Does a town mentioned on this page guarantee a car is available there?
No. The booking screen checks the journey you request, and availability depends on its address, time and vehicle requirements. If no suitable option appears, call 01293 699909 rather than changing the address to obtain an unrelated quote.
Booking on the website, app or phone
Do I have to install an app to reserve an airport taxi?
No. You can use the KUVER website or call 01293 699909. The iPhone and Android passenger apps provide another booking route. Whichever method you use, check that the confirmation contains the journey you intended.
Can I view Gatwick quotes before creating an account?
Yes. Enter the trip to view available quotes before signing in. Follow the account or sign-in steps when you choose to continue with a booking. Viewing options does not send a confirmed ride request.
Who should receive the booking details when I arrange a car for someone else?
Tell KUVER who is travelling and provide a contact number the passenger can use on the day. Share the confirmed itinerary with them so they know the collection place, time and booking reference, even if someone else made the reservation.
What should I do if I am unsure whether my booking submitted?
Check your account and confirmation messages for a reference. If the result is still unclear, contact KUVER before submitting again. Repeating the booking can create two reservations for the same journey.
Passengers, luggage and payment
Should I choose an airport vehicle by seats or luggage space?
Check both. Count every traveller, including children, and list large cases, cabin bags and bulky items. Use the capacities displayed with the quote and ask KUVER to check anything unusual before selecting the vehicle.
What needs to be agreed before travelling with specialist equipment?
Describe the equipment and its approximate dimensions, plus any assistance needed to enter or leave the car. Ask KUVER to confirm suitability before booking. A standard seat count does not establish space or accessibility for a particular item.
Is verifying my card the same as paying the journey fare?
No. KUVER’s card booking flow verifies the card when you book; the fare is charged after trip completion. Read the payment terms for your booking and contact the team about an unexpected entry rather than assuming verification means the trip is paid.
Can I request a business receipt or recurring airport journeys?
Contact KUVER with the booking reference for a receipt enquiry. For regular staff or client travel, discuss collection patterns, vehicle requirements and billing arrangements separately. A one-off booking does not automatically create a credit account.
Return journeys and changes of plan
Does booking a taxi to Gatwick also reserve my journey home?
Only rely on the journeys shown in your confirmation. Give the return date, arriving flight, destination and party details when requesting the homeward trip. The outbound price alone does not confirm a return car.
Which flight details matter for an outbound versus a return taxi?
For the outward trip, plan the collection around the airline’s airport arrival requirements. For an arriving-flight collection, give the flight number and arrival date so the pickup arrangements can be discussed. Do not use the same timing assumption for both directions.
Can I change the route after confirming the airport booking?
Contact KUVER with the reference and proposed amendment as soon as possible. Extra stops, another address or a different vehicle may need a revised fare and availability check. Keep the updated confirmation once the change is agreed.
Who should I contact about a flight change, airport rules or my taxi?
Ask the airline about the flight, check-in and baggage. Use Gatwick’s guidance for airport facilities and access rules. Contact KUVER about the car journey, collection details, fare and booking reference so each part of the plan is checked by the right team.

Booking a South Terminal taxi
How can I reserve a taxi to Gatwick South Terminal?
Choose Get a quote, enter the address where you want to be collected and select Gatwick South Terminal. Add the pickup date, time, passengers and bags, review the vehicle options and complete the booking steps.
Can I arrange a South Terminal transfer by phone or app?
Yes. You can use the KUVER website, the iPhone or Android passenger app, or call 01293 699909. Use the same full journey details whichever booking method you choose.
Is advance booking necessary for a South Terminal journey?
Arrange the ride ahead of travel where possible, especially for a larger vehicle, an early departure or a holiday date. KUVER checks availability for the requested trip; a price enquiry does not reserve a car.
What if I need a South Terminal taxi today?
Try the booking screen for your actual collection address and time, or call the team to check. Wait for the booking to be confirmed rather than assuming that a last-minute request has been accepted.
Are late-night and bank-holiday collections available?
Enter the specific date and time so KUVER can check the journey. Overnight, bank-holiday and peak-period requests remain subject to vehicle availability and confirmation; this page does not promise a car at every time.
Can I check South Terminal prices without signing in first?
You can enter the journey and view available quotes before signing in. When you choose to book, follow the account or sign-in steps presented by the booking screen and keep the resulting confirmation.
Can I organise a South Terminal ride for a relative or colleague?
Tell KUVER who will travel and provide a contact number that passenger can use on the day. Check the passenger, address and terminal details on the confirmation so the booker and traveller have the same collection plan.
What if the booking screen cannot find my hotel or street?
Search using the full hotel, business or street address and inspect the selected result. If the location is missing or the entrance is unclear, call KUVER. Selecting a different property just to obtain a price can give the wrong journey.
Quotes, payment and airport charges
What determines the price of a taxi to South Terminal?
Your collection address, date, time, vehicle and journey requirements determine the quote. A short trip from Crawley and a collection from Brighton are different routes, so enter your own address for a useful comparison.
Will South Terminal cost the same as North Terminal?
Check a quote for the terminal you actually need. Do not assume another operator’s same-terminal pricing policy applies to KUVER, or that an existing North Terminal quote automatically covers a changed South Terminal journey.
Should I divide the quoted fare by the number of passengers?
Review the total for the chosen journey and vehicle after entering the full travelling party. It is not a shared-shuttle seat reservation. Check vehicle capacity and the booking total rather than assuming an extra passenger can be added later.
Is the South Terminal drop-off fee part of my quote?
Read the quote inclusions and booking terms, and ask KUVER if airport access is unclear. Gatwick’s forecourt tariff and a taxi journey price are different things; do not assume that a headline taxi price includes every possible extra.
Must I pay the airport drop-off charge myself as a taxi passenger?
Confirm the airport-charge arrangements with KUVER before travelling. Avoid making a second payment against the taxi registration unless the team has specifically asked you to do so; the vehicle operator may already manage that payment.
Could waiting, extra stops or a changed route add to the fare?
They can affect the journey and the applicable charge. Include all stops and requirements when requesting the quote, and ask for changes and costs to be agreed. Waiting and amendments follow your confirmed booking terms.
Are cash and card payment offered, and is a deposit needed?
Use the payment options actually displayed for your booking, or check with KUVER if you need a particular method. Follow the payment steps shown; do not assume that every booking requires, or avoids, an advance payment.
Does card verification mean the full fare has already been collected?
No. In KUVER’s card booking flow, the card is verified when you book and the journey fare is charged after trip completion. Check your booking terms and contact the team about any unexpected payment entry.
South Terminal destinations and drop-off
Where is the South Terminal departures drop-off?
Gatwick’s designated South Terminal drop-off zone is on the lower level. Select South Terminal when obtaining your taxi quote and agree any extra unloading or assistance requirements before confirming the ride.
Which postcode identifies Gatwick South Terminal?
Gatwick publishes RH6 0NP for South Terminal. Select the named destination in the booking screen too: the terminal, station, hotel and car-park entrances are not interchangeable just because they are around the same airport.
How do I confirm that South Terminal is right for my flight?
Check your current flight itinerary, boarding pass and airline information, then use Gatwick’s terminal checker if needed. Match the flight number and travel date. Terminal information from a previous holiday may no longer apply.
Should I choose South Terminal just because I fly with British Airways or another airline?
Use the terminal listed for your actual flight, not only an airline name. Gatwick’s airline directory is a useful check, but confirm changes with the airline and update KUVER if the booking destination is affected.
Can the taxi stop at Express Pick-Up when I am flying out?
Gatwick separates passenger drop-off from Express Pick-Up. Use the designated departures drop-off arrangements for an outward flight. Do not choose a car-park collection point as the destination unless that is the journey KUVER has agreed.
Can someone escort me inside after the car drops us?
Discuss the plan before booking if unloading alone is not enough. A forecourt drop-off is a short stop, not a parking reservation. Longer goodbyes or an escort into the terminal may require different arrangements and charges.
Is there a free drop-off alternative at South Terminal?
Gatwick publishes a Long Stay option with a shuttle instead of a terminal forecourt stop. It adds a transfer step. Ask KUVER whether an alternative destination can be arranged and check the airport’s current guidance before choosing it.
Does a Blue Badge automatically make my airport transfer cheaper?
Gatwick has conditions and a registration process for its drop-off exemption. Discuss relevant arrangements before travelling. An airport exemption and the taxi journey fare are separate; do not assume the booking price changes automatically.
Rail connections and departure timing
Is Gatwick Airport station in South Terminal?
Yes. The airport railway station is at South Terminal. If your taxi is for a train connection, specify the station and tell KUVER when you need to arrive rather than selecting an airline departure by default.
Can I get to North Terminal after arriving at the South Terminal station?
Gatwick links the terminals with a free inter-terminal shuttle. The ride is about two minutes, but walking, waiting and handling luggage add time. Check your flight terminal before deciding where the taxi or train portion should end.
Does Gatwick Express serve North Terminal directly?
Gatwick Express uses Gatwick Airport station at South Terminal. Passengers for North Terminal use the inter-terminal connection. Check the train operator’s current service information when planning the rail part of your journey.
Can KUVER meet me after a train at Gatwick Airport station?
Request the station collection with the date, expected arrival time, passengers and luggage. Agree a reachable meeting point with KUVER. The train platform is not a vehicle pickup point, so include time to reach the car.
What if a delayed train affects my taxi booking?
Contact KUVER as soon as you know the arrival time has changed and give the booking reference. Ask the team to confirm the new collection plan and any effect on waiting, availability or price.
When should I leave home for a South Terminal flight?
Use your airline’s required airport arrival time and work backwards through the drive and a traffic buffer. Include bag drop, children and any assistance arrangements. The taxi collection time should not be set to the flight departure time.
Can I arrive later if I only have cabin luggage or have checked in online?
You still need to meet the airline’s security, boarding and gate deadlines. Online check-in or travelling without hold luggage can change your airport tasks, but neither removes the road journey or guarantees a short security queue.
How long is the road journey from Brighton, Crawley or Horsham?
Start with the exact collection address and a current route estimate. Traffic, roadworks and the travel time of day affect the drive. A general journey time for a town should not be treated as a guaranteed airport arrival.
Families, groups and vehicle requirements
How do I select a South Terminal vehicle with enough luggage space?
Count every suitcase, cabin bag and bulky item before comparing the capacities shown with your quote. If the load is unusual or close to the limit, ask KUVER to confirm suitability instead of choosing by seat count alone.
Can I request a six-, seven- or eight-seat vehicle?
Check which vehicles are offered for the journey, or contact KUVER with the exact party size and bags. Seat numbers do not establish luggage space. A particular capacity or model must be confirmed rather than assumed from another company’s fleet.
What if our South Terminal group needs more than one car?
Give KUVER the complete passenger count, luggage and collection addresses. Ask the team to check multiple vehicles and confirm the arrangements for each one; an ordinary single-vehicle booking does not reserve a second car.
Should I include infants when entering the passenger count?
Yes. Include every traveller and give KUVER the children’s ages and any seat requirements. The booking must reflect the whole party so the team can check the vehicle and travel arrangements.
How can I arrange a child seat for the journey to South Terminal?
Discuss the child’s age and the type of seat needed before booking, or explain if you will bring your own. Confirm suitability, fitting and any cost. Seat supply or storage for a return trip should not be assumed.
Will a pushchair, golf bag or other large item fit?
Tell KUVER what the item is and its approximate size before confirming the vehicle. Large equipment can change the space required even when the passenger count is small. Check the full luggage load with the team.
What should I tell KUVER if I need help getting into the car?
Describe the assistance needed and any wheelchair, walking aid or other equipment, including its size. Contact the team before booking so suitability can be checked. Airport assistance and the taxi vehicle arrangement need to be organised separately.
May I bring an assistance dog or another animal on a South Terminal trip?
Give KUVER clear details of the animal and any space or carrier needs when arranging the journey. Assistance dogs and pets require different planning. Confirm the travel arrangement rather than treating the animal as an ordinary piece of luggage.
South Terminal arrivals and return taxis
Where is Gatwick’s South Terminal Express Pick-Up area?
Gatwick lists South Terminal Express Pick-Up at Car Park 3, Ground Floor. That identifies the airport facility, not a universal KUVER meeting point. Follow the collection instructions confirmed for your own booking.
Will a KUVER driver meet me at Costa Coffee or another arrivals landmark?
Use the meeting place KUVER has confirmed, which may depend on the pickup arrangements. A café or information desk named on another operator’s website is not automatically the correct location for your KUVER driver.
Can I ask for a name-board meet-and-greet pickup?
Ask KUVER whether meet and greet is available for your arrival, where the driver would meet you and what the charge would be. Do not assume that a name board or an indoor meeting is included in every quote.
How do I find my car if I have just landed at South Terminal?
Collect your luggage, keep your phone available and follow the confirmed pickup instructions. If anything is unclear, contact KUVER with your reference and current location before walking to another terminal or car park.
Should the return taxi be booked for my flight’s landing time?
Landing is only the start of the arrivals process. You may need to leave the aircraft, clear passport control and collect bags. Give KUVER the flight details and agree the pickup plan rather than assuming you will be ready immediately.
What are the arrangements if my arriving flight is delayed?
Provide the flight number and tell KUVER about changes you become aware of. Confirm any flight-monitoring and waiting arrangements for your booking. Free or unlimited delay waiting is not established just because the flight details were supplied.
Can I leave from South Terminal and return through North Terminal?
Yes. Check the departure and arrival terminals for each flight separately and give KUVER the correct details for each taxi leg. Confirm both bookings; the outward journey does not automatically arrange the return pickup.
Can my driver collect me at the South Terminal drop-off forecourt?
Do not assume that a departures drop-off bay is an arrivals collection point. Gatwick has separate pickup arrangements. Use the place agreed with KUVER and avoid waiting on restricted airport roads.
Booking confirmation, changes and support
What confirms that my South Terminal car has been booked?
Keep the reference and confirmation issued by KUVER, then check the date, pickup time, both addresses and passenger details. A saved quote, enquiry or unfinished payment step alone should not be treated as a confirmed ride.
What should I check if the confirmation email is missing?
Look in your account and the confirmation channels used for the booking, including the email spam folder. Contact KUVER if you cannot find the reference. Avoid placing a duplicate request until the original booking status has been checked.
Who do I tell if my flight moves from South to North Terminal?
Contact KUVER promptly with the booking reference and the new terminal details. Ask the team to confirm the amended route, timing and any fare change. Changing the airline itinerary does not itself change the taxi reservation.
Can I move the collection time or add a stop after booking?
Ask KUVER to check the amendment before travelling. Another address or collection time can affect availability, journey duration and cost. Keep the revised confirmation once the change has been agreed.
How do cancellations and refunds work for a South Terminal taxi?
Follow the management option on your booking confirmation or contact KUVER with the reference. Check the applicable cancellation deadline, fee and refund terms. This page does not promise the cancellation rules advertised by another operator.
What should I do if the car has not arrived for my pickup?
Call 01293 699909 with the reference and the collection address. Stay reachable and ask KUVER for an update. Do not wait for a fixed period taken from a competitor’s late-driver policy.
What if I am delayed leaving home or checking out of my hotel?
Tell KUVER as soon as the booked time becomes difficult to meet. The team can explain the effect on your journey, waiting and charges. Any free waiting allowance must come from your confirmed terms, not an assumption.
Can I request a receipt or report property left in the car?
For either enquiry, contact KUVER with the booking reference and journey date. Describe any missing item clearly so the team can investigate. A receipt request or lost-property enquiry does not require you to place another booking.
Other South Terminal planning questions
Is a KUVER booking the same as using the official airport taxi desk?
No. KUVER is a separate pre-booked private hire service. Contact KUVER about the reservation and follow its confirmation, rather than expecting the airport taxi desk or another company to manage the booking.
Is a South Terminal taxi always cheaper than a train or ride-hailing app?
There is no universal cheapest option. Compare the complete journey for your date, party and luggage, including getting to a station, airport access charges and onward connections. Review the actual quote rather than a general comparison claim.
Should I compare two taxi journeys with the price of airport parking?
Yes, if deciding whether to drive yourself. Compare both taxi legs with parking for the entire stay, fuel and other travel costs. Your dates, route and party affect the result; a taxi does not automatically cost less.
Does taxi meet and greet include looking after my own car?
No. Taxi meet and greet refers to a passenger meeting arrangement. Airport meet-and-greet parking is a different product involving your own vehicle. A KUVER journey does not book or provide parking for your car.
Can I arrange a South Terminal hotel collection or regular work transfer?
Use the actual hotel or workplace address and discuss access, luggage and the collection time with KUVER. For recurring journeys or business billing, agree the requirements separately rather than assuming an account or credit arrangement already exists.
How do I organise assistance at South Terminal itself?
Arrange Gatwick Assisted Travel through your airline or travel agent ahead of the journey where possible. Tell KUVER what taxi-to-terminal handover you need. Confirming a taxi does not book wheelchair assistance inside the airport.
Where can I check South Terminal shops, Wi-Fi, lounges and facilities?
Use Gatwick’s official terminal pages and directories for current opening times, locations and access conditions. Some facilities are after security or require a separate booking. They are not included in the KUVER taxi fare.
Who can help with airline baggage rules, train times or airport parking?
Ask the airline about flight and baggage requirements, the rail operator about train services, and Gatwick about airport facilities and parking. KUVER can help with the taxi reference, vehicle, pickup arrangements, route and fare.

Booking and availability
How do I book a taxi to Gatwick North Terminal?
Open Get a quote, enter your collection address and select Gatwick North Terminal as the destination. Add the date, pickup time, passengers and luggage, then review the available vehicles and fare before confirming.
How far ahead should I arrange my North Terminal taxi?
Book once your travel plans are settled, particularly for early flights, school holidays or a larger party. Availability is checked for your requested time and vehicle; KUVER does not promise a universal minimum-notice period.
Can I request a taxi at short notice?
Check the booking screen for your exact journey or call 01293 699909. Do not assume that sending an enquiry reserves a car: wait for a confirmed booking reference.
Can I book an overnight, early-morning or public-holiday journey?
Enter the actual travel date and collection time to check availability. For pickups after midnight, double-check the calendar date. A future-time booking request still needs confirmation for that specific journey.
Can I book without downloading the KUVER app?
Yes. Use the website or call 01293 699909. KUVER also has iPhone and Android passenger apps, but installing an app is not required to request a journey.
Do I need an account before checking the fare?
You can enter your route and view available quotes before signing in. Follow the account or sign-in steps offered by the booking flow when you are ready to confirm the ride.
What if my address is missing or I do not know its postcode?
Try the full street address, hotel or business name and check the selected location carefully. If you cannot identify the correct entrance or obtain a quote, call KUVER rather than selecting a nearby but incorrect address.
Can I arrange the journey from abroad or for another passenger?
Contact KUVER with the journey and passenger requirements. Make clear who will travel and which phone number will work on the day. Check the passenger details on the confirmation before relying on the arrangement.
Fares, charges and payment
How much does a taxi to North Terminal cost?
The fare depends on the starting address, date, time, vehicle and any additional stops or requirements. Use your actual collection point to obtain a current quote instead of relying on another passenger’s fare.
Is the displayed quote for one passenger or the vehicle?
Check the journey total for the selected vehicle after entering everyone travelling and all luggage. Do not multiply a journey quote by the passenger count or assume that extra passengers will fit without checking the vehicle capacity.
Are North Terminal access, parking and waiting included?
Review the inclusions shown with your quote and the booking terms. Ask KUVER to clarify airport access, parking, waiting and any requested meet-and-greet arrangements before you confirm.
Does Gatwick charge for using the North Terminal drop-off zone?
Yes. Gatwick charges vehicles to use the terminal forecourt. This is separate from setting a taxi fare: check how airport access is treated in your KUVER quote and consult Gatwick’s current drop-off guidance for the airport tariff.
Do I need to pay Gatwick separately when travelling in a KUVER car?
Check the airport-charge arrangements with KUVER before booking. Do not make a separate payment against the driver’s vehicle registration unless specifically instructed; the vehicle operator may already handle airport access payments.
Can the fare change after I get a quote?
Review the confirmed fare and terms for your booking. A changed address, extra stop, different vehicle or additional waiting can affect the journey. Ask for any amendment and its cost to be confirmed before travel.
Why can my quote differ from an advertised price or a previous trip?
A headline price may describe a different route, vehicle or date. Use the same full addresses, collection time, passengers and luggage when comparing quotes, and check the included charges rather than comparing the starting price alone.
How can I pay, and when is a card charged?
Choose from the payment options offered for your booking. In the card booking flow, the card is verified when you book and the fare is charged after trip completion. Check the displayed payment and cancellation terms before confirming.
Finding the right terminal
Where does a taxi drop passengers at North Terminal?
The designated North Terminal drop-off is on the lower level, between the Sofitel hotel and the multi-storey car park. Choose the named terminal destination and discuss any assistance or longer unloading requirements before booking.
What postcode should I use for Gatwick North Terminal?
Gatwick lists RH6 0PH for North Terminal. In the taxi booking screen, select the named terminal destination as well: a postcode is not a substitute for confirming the correct departure point.
How can I check whether my flight uses North Terminal?
Use your current airline itinerary, boarding pass or airline app, and check the terminal against Gatwick’s flight information before travelling. Use the flight number for the actual travel date rather than an old airline-terminal list.
Do easyJet, TUI or other airlines always use the same terminal?
Do not choose a terminal solely from the airline name. Allocations and individual flights can differ or change. Check the current flight details, then tell KUVER if the destination on your booking needs updating.
What if I discover that I need South Terminal after booking?
Contact KUVER with your reference and the corrected destination as soon as possible. Ask the team to confirm the change, timing and any fare difference; the original booking does not update itself.
What should I do if I reach the wrong Gatwick terminal?
Follow signs for the free inter-terminal shuttle and check the time remaining before check-in closes. Allow for walking and waiting as well as the shuttle ride. Contact your airline if the mistake puts your flight at risk.
Is the North–South Terminal shuttle free and available overnight?
Gatwick describes its inter-terminal shuttle as free, running every few minutes around the clock, with a ride of about two minutes. That does not include the walk to the platform or any waiting time.
Does Gatwick North Terminal have its own railway station?
No. Gatwick Airport railway station is at South Terminal. If arriving by train, use the inter-terminal shuttle to reach North. If booking a taxi for a train rather than a flight, specify the station as your destination.
Collection times and journey planning
How early should my taxi collect me for a North Terminal flight?
Start with your airline’s required airport arrival time, then work backwards through the road journey and a traffic allowance. Include bag drop and any assistance arrangements. Your flight departure time is not the time to leave home.
How long does a taxi from Crawley, Brighton or London take?
The exact address, route, traffic and roadworks affect the drive. Use a current route estimate for your journey and leave a buffer. A general town-to-airport time is not a guaranteed arrival time.
Does checking in online mean I can book a later pickup?
Online check-in can remove one step, but you must still meet your airline’s bag-drop, security and gate deadlines. Plan the taxi around those requirements rather than assuming that online check-in removes airport waiting time.
How should I book a collection shortly after midnight?
Use the date on which the pickup actually takes place. For example, 00:30 on Tuesday is early Tuesday morning. Compare the confirmation’s date and time together with your flight itinerary.
Can I include another pickup address or stop on the way?
Tell KUVER about every stop before the quote is agreed. Extra addresses affect the route, time and potentially the vehicle or fare. Confirm the full itinerary rather than asking the driver to add it after departure.
Can I be collected from a hotel near North Terminal?
Request the hotel by name and agree the correct entrance. Some hotels are near a different terminal or use their own shuttle arrangements. Check the actual pickup and destination instead of booking a generic airport address.
Is a taxi cheaper than leaving my car at Gatwick?
Compare the total for both taxi journeys with the parking quote for your full stay, plus fuel and any other travel costs. The better-value option depends on your dates, addresses, party and luggage; one is not always cheaper.
How much time should I allow for a connection to another airport?
Include leaving the aircraft, immigration where applicable, baggage reclaim, the road transfer and the next airline’s check-in deadline. Contact the airlines about connection requirements. A taxi booking cannot guarantee that separate flights will connect.
Vehicles, children and accessibility
Which car should I choose for my passengers and luggage?
Use both the seat count and luggage capacity shown with the quote. Count large cases, cabin bags and other equipment separately. Ask KUVER to check suitability if your party or bags are close to the listed limits.
Can I request a larger vehicle, executive car or several cars?
Check the vehicle options for your journey or contact KUVER with the full party and luggage details. Larger, executive or multiple-vehicle arrangements must be agreed; do not assume a particular model or capacity is available.
Do babies and children count towards the passenger total?
Include every child and infant when entering the travelling party. Tell KUVER the ages and any seat requirements so the team can check a suitable arrangement before the booking is confirmed.
Can I request a child seat or bring my own?
Discuss the child’s age, seat requirements and vehicle suitability with KUVER before booking. If bringing your own seat, agree fitting, luggage space and what happens to the seat during your trip. Do not assume supply or storage is included.
Can I take a pushchair, sports equipment or oversized luggage?
Tell KUVER the item type and approximate size before choosing the vehicle. A passenger-seat allowance does not establish space for a pushchair, skis, a bicycle or other bulky equipment. Confirm the complete load before travel.
How do I arrange a taxi if I use a wheelchair or mobility aid?
Contact KUVER before booking with the equipment dimensions and the help you need entering or leaving the vehicle. The team must confirm a suitable transport arrangement. Separately arrange airport assistance through your airline or travel agent.
Where can I arrange assistance inside North Terminal?
Book Gatwick Assisted Travel through your airline or travel agent, preferably ahead of travel. Gatwick has assistance reception points at terminal drop-offs. Tell KUVER about the handover you need; a taxi booking does not book airport assistance.
Can I travel with a pet or an assistance dog?
Tell KUVER about the animal and any carrier or space requirements when arranging the journey. Assistance dogs and pets involve different arrangements, so give clear details and confirm the vehicle plan rather than assuming a standard luggage allowance covers it.
Confirmation, changes and help
How do I know my North Terminal taxi is confirmed?
Keep the booking reference and confirmation issued by KUVER. Check the pickup, terminal, date, time, passengers and contact details. Viewing a fare or sending an enquiry by itself does not confirm a car.
What if no booking confirmation arrives?
Check your account and any confirmation channel used for the booking, including your email spam folder. If you cannot find a reference, contact KUVER before submitting another booking so you do not accidentally arrange the journey twice.
Can I change the time, address, terminal or passenger details?
Contact KUVER promptly with your booking reference and the required changes. Availability and cost may need checking again. Keep the updated confirmation rather than relying on the details of the original request.
Can I cancel, and will I receive a refund?
Use the management option shown for your booking or contact KUVER with the reference. The applicable cancellation deadline, fees and refund conditions are those in your booking terms; there is no blanket free-cancellation promise on this page.
What if my driver has not arrived at the agreed time?
Call KUVER on 01293 699909 with your booking reference and collection location. Keep your phone available. Get an update from the team rather than waiting for an arbitrary period copied from another operator’s policy.
What happens if I am not ready when the car arrives?
Contact KUVER as soon as you know you will be late. Waiting, changes and any charge follow the terms of your confirmed booking. Do not assume that unlimited waiting or a free waiting allowance is included.
How can I get a receipt or discuss regular business travel?
Contact KUVER with your booking reference for receipt enquiries. For recurring staff or client journeys, discuss the required routes and billing arrangements with the team; account facilities and credit terms need separate agreement.
What should I do if I leave something in the vehicle?
Contact KUVER promptly with the reference, travel date and a description of the item. Check whether it was left in the car or terminal. Collection or delivery arrangements need confirmation; recovery cannot be guaranteed.
Return pickups and meeting the driver
Can I arrange a return pickup from North Terminal?
Yes. Give the actual arrival date, flight and terminal so the return fare and availability can be checked. An outward journey to North Terminal does not automatically create a return booking.
Where will I meet a KUVER driver after landing at North Terminal?
Follow the meeting instructions confirmed for your own booking. Do not use an information desk, hotel or car park mentioned by another operator unless KUVER has confirmed that location for your pickup.
What is taxi meet and greet, and is it included?
Taxi meet and greet usually means the driver meets the passenger at an agreed place inside arrivals. Ask KUVER whether this is available for your booking, where the meeting will be and whether any charge applies.
What if I cannot find or contact my driver at the airport?
Remain at a safe, identifiable location and call KUVER with your reference and terminal. Keep your phone switched on after landing. Do not move to a different terminal or car park without agreeing the new meeting point.
How long after landing should I arrange the return collection?
Allow for leaving the aircraft, passport control where required, collecting all luggage and reaching the meeting point. These times vary. Give KUVER your flight details and discuss the collection plan rather than treating landing time as ready-to-leave time.
Are delayed flights monitored, and is extra waiting free?
Provide accurate flight details and contact KUVER if the arrival information changes. Confirm any flight-monitoring and waiting arrangements for your booking. Delays do not establish unlimited free waiting or an automatic refund.
Can my return flight use South Terminal even if I depart from North?
Yes, outbound and return flights can use different terminals. Check each itinerary separately and tell KUVER the correct arrival terminal for the return pickup. Contact the team if that information changes.
Can I be collected from the departures drop-off zone instead?
Do not treat a departures forecourt as an arrivals waiting or pickup area. Follow Gatwick’s designated collection arrangements and the instructions confirmed by KUVER. A drop-off location and a pickup meeting point are different things.
Other North Terminal travel questions
Is KUVER the operator at Gatwick’s official taxi desk?
KUVER is a separate pre-booked private hire service. Use your KUVER confirmation and contact KUVER about your journey; a KUVER reservation is not a booking with the airport taxi desk or another operator.
Is booking ahead always cheaper than Uber, a rank taxi or a train?
No single option is always cheapest. Compare prices for the same date, route, passengers and luggage, including airport charges and the cost of reaching a station or pickup point. Consider the complete journey as well as the fare.
Is taxi meet and greet the same as meet-and-greet parking?
No. A taxi booking supplies a driver and vehicle for your journey. Meet-and-greet parking is a separate service in which a parking provider takes your own car. A KUVER taxi booking does not reserve airport parking.
Can a friend wait with me at the North Terminal forecourt?
The designated forecourt is for short drop-offs. For a longer goodbye or escort into the terminal, check Gatwick’s suitable parking options. Use signed areas and avoid stopping or waiting on restricted airport roads.
Will a Blue Badge automatically remove every airport-related charge?
Do not assume so. Gatwick publishes a registration process and conditions for its drop-off exemption. Discuss any relevant arrangements with KUVER before travel; an airport exemption does not automatically change the taxi fare.
Does North Terminal have Wi-Fi, shops and somewhere to eat?
Gatwick lists Wi-Fi, shops, cafés and restaurants at North Terminal. Check the airport’s directory for current locations, opening times and whether a facility is before or after security, especially for overnight travel.
Can I use a lounge, shower or other facility before my flight?
Check the relevant lounge or facility directly for North Terminal availability, access conditions and opening hours. A taxi fare does not include lounge admission, security Fast Track or airport-hotel facilities.
Who should answer questions about my airline, bags or airport facilities?
Contact your airline for check-in, gate, baggage and flight changes. Use Gatwick’s official guidance for terminal facilities, security, assistance and parking. Contact KUVER for the taxi booking, route, vehicle, collection and fare.
