Road times are live-traffic estimates for a weekday morning; your quoted price uses your exact addresses.
01 — The airport journey
Gatwick transfers from Berkshire
Book a Gatwick airport taxi from Berkshire and nearby counties, with your price confirmed at booking, flight tracking and meet & greet for arrivals. Gatwick has North and South passenger terminals linked by a free shuttle. We confirm the flight's terminal before travel and plan the M25/M23 journey against its reporting time. For arrivals, flight and passenger contact coordinate the landside meeting. An in-hall name-board greeting starts with parking in the correct terminal's Short Stay car park. Quick paid Express Pick-Up is in North Car Park 6 Level 4 or South Car Park 3 ground floor; the driver stays with the vehicle. Departure drop-off follows separate signs and charges.
02 — The passenger handover
The terminal and car park set the meeting point
The two Gatwick terminals require different parking choices. The booking records the flight terminal and whether the chauffeur will park for an in-hall greeting or remain with the car for an express collection. Keep current airport signs and passenger contact details to hand; departure set-down is agreed separately.

05 — Before departure
Collection details set the plan
We record the full collection address, booked terminal, requested arrival, passenger contact and every substantial luggage item before the chauffeur leaves. For departures, the terminal and airline timing determine the set-down instruction. The collection time is planned from the actual address rather than a town-wide estimate. FCET tracks the Gatwick arrival and adjusts the chauffeur's timing when it lands early or is delayed. The chauffeur waits at the agreed public arrivals point with a name board, helps with luggage and follows the recorded onward address.

The booking uses the current instruction for the named terminal or facility.
07 — The complete itinerary
Passenger, luggage and onward address
Passenger count and the full luggage list guide the vehicle class. Add pushchairs, mobility aids, sports bags and other substantial items before confirmation. An onward hotel, office, residence or station is recorded as a precise address. Any additional stop is included in the itinerary before travel. A return transfer can be booked with its own flight, terminal, date and passenger contact. Treating each sector separately prevents the outward terminal or collection note from being reused when the return movement is different.
