Five airports serve London passengers. Heathrow to the west, Gatwick to the south, Stansted to the northeast, Luton to the north, and London City just a few miles east of the City. For a group of six or seven people, the airport itself is almost irrelevant to the transport decision — what matters is that one vehicle collects everyone from one address and delivers them to one terminal. The 7 seater taxi to all London airports provides exactly this regardless of which airport the group is flying from. This guide covers verified fares, journey times, and what to expect at each of London's five main airports when travelling as a group in a 7 or 8-seater vehicle.
Gatwick Taxi Transfer provides 7 seater taxi and 8 seater minibus group transfers to all five London airports, 24 hours a day at confirmed fixed fares.

The 7 seater taxi to Heathrow Airport from Central London covers approximately 15 to 20 miles via the A4 and M4 westbound. Heathrow is the closest major London airport to West London, making it the most cost-effective destination for groups departing from Hammersmith, Chiswick, Ealing, or Hounslow. The 7 seater to Heathrow fare from Central London is approximately £75 to £110 for the full vehicle. For a group of 7 passengers, the per-head cost is approximately £11 to £16, which competes directly with the Heathrow Express at £25 to £37 per person (4 Heathrow Express tickets alone cost £100 to £148, more than the full 7-seater fare).
Heathrow has four active terminals. Terminal 5 serves all British Airways flights. Terminal 2 covers Star Alliance airlines. Terminal 3 covers Virgin Atlantic, American Airlines, Emirates and Qantas. Terminal 4 covers KLM, Malaysia Airlines and Gulf carriers. Specify your terminal when booking the 7 seater taxi to Heathrow so the driver delivers to the correct departures entrance. For arrivals, the driver meets the group in the arrivals hall at the specified terminal. The 7 seater taxi to Heathrow is the most commonly booked group airport transfer from Central and West London given Heathrow's position as the UK's largest airport and the departure point for most long-haul family and corporate routes. See our full Heathrow airport taxi transfer page for route and timing details including per-postcode fares and M4 traffic guidance.
7 Seater Taxi to Gatwick Airport
The 7 seater taxi to Gatwick Airport from Central London covers approximately 28 to 32 miles southbound via the M23. Gatwick is the closest major airport for South London groups — passengers from Brixton, Streatham, Croydon, and Clapham can reach Gatwick in 40 to 60 minutes in a 7-seater. The 7 seater Gatwick fare from Central London is approximately £80 to £120. Gatwick handles two terminals: North Terminal (easyJet, TUI, Norwegian) and South Terminal (British Airways short-haul, Ryanair, Turkish Airlines, Emirates). The Gatwick Airport vehicle drop-off charge of £10 (effective January 2026) is included in the confirmed 7 seater taxi to Gatwick fare.
For groups where different passengers are flying from different Gatwick terminals on the same trip (for instance, a family split across easyJet North and a connecting Ryanair South), the driver delivers to the terminal specified at booking. The North and South Terminals are connected by an internal transit running every few minutes. See our dedicated Gatwick airport taxi transfer page for full details.
7 Seater Taxi to Stansted Airport
The 7 seater taxi to Stansted Airport from Central London covers approximately 33 to 38 miles via the A11 or M11 motorway northeastbound. Stansted is London's budget airline hub, primarily serving Ryanair, Wizz Air, and easyJet. For groups from East London, Canary Wharf, Stratford, or North East London, Stansted is often the nearest airport by road — from Stratford (E15), a 7 seater to Stansted covers approximately 28 to 32 miles in 40 to 65 minutes at approximately £70 to £98.
The 7 seater to Stansted from Central London costs approximately £90 to £130 and takes 55 to 90 minutes depending on M11 conditions. Stansted is a single-terminal airport, which simplifies the 7 seater taxi to Stansted Airport for both departures and arrivals — there is no terminal confusion. The Stansted Airport drop-off charge is included in the confirmed fare. The Stansted Express train costs approximately £19 to £22 per person from Liverpool Street, meaning a group of 6 pays £114 to £132 in train fares versus £90 to £130 for the full 7-seater vehicle. The group taxi to Stansted is particularly popular for stag and hen party groups, ski holiday groups, and European city break groups who typically travel in parties of 5 to 8 — exactly the size that maximises the cost advantage of a 7-seater over individual train tickets. See our Stansted airport taxi transfer page for full route details including North and East London specific fares.
7 Seater Taxi to Luton Airport
The 7 seater taxi to Luton Airport from Central London covers approximately 30 to 35 miles northbound via the M1 motorway. Luton Airport (LTN) is primarily served by Wizz Air, easyJet, and TUI, and is the preferred departure airport for many package holiday groups — precisely the group size that benefits most from a 7-seater vehicle. The 7 seater to Luton fare from Central London is approximately £85 to £120. From North London postcodes (N, NW, EN, WD), Luton is the closest airport, making the 7 seater taxi to Luton airport from North London the most cost-effective airport transfer in the group vehicle category.
The Luton Airport train connection is complex: trains from St Pancras go to Luton Airport Parkway station, which still requires a dedicated shuttle bus to the terminal building. The Thameslink plus shuttle adds approximately 10 to 15 minutes to the published train journey time and requires the group to manage luggage across two transport modes. For a group of 5 to 7 in a 7-seater taxi to Luton, the door-to-terminal service eliminates the shuttle entirely. The 7 seater taxi to Luton is especially well-suited to North London groups where Luton is geographically the nearest of the five airports. A group from Finchley, Hendon, or Brent pays approximately £55 to £80 in a 7-seater to Luton versus £80 to £100 to Heathrow and £100 to £130 to Stansted, making Luton the most cost-effective group airport taxi for North London passengers irrespective of which airline they are using. See our Luton airport taxi transfer page for North London area fares and timing.
7 Seater Taxi to London City Airport
The 7 seater taxi to London City Airport (LCY) is the shortest and cheapest of the London airport group transfers. London City Airport is located in the Royal Docks area of East London, approximately 6 miles from the City of London and 9 to 12 miles from Central London. The 7 seater to London City Airport from Central London costs approximately £55 to £75 and takes 25 to 50 minutes. From East London postcodes (E1–E20), it is the nearest airport by far — a group from Canary Wharf (E14) can reach London City in 15 to 25 minutes at approximately £28 to £45 in a 7-seater.
London City Airport operates a single terminal and primarily serves British Airways CityFlyer, Aer Lingus, KLM Cityhopper, and business routes to European cities. It is the smallest of the five London airports and has no check-in queues comparable to Heathrow or Gatwick. For business groups travelling from City or Central London addresses, the 7 seater taxi to London City Airport represents the most time-efficient and cost-effective group airport transfer in London. See our London City airport taxi transfer page for full East London coverage.
Vehicle Options for All Airport Group Transfers
| Vehicle | Passengers | Suitcases | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPV 6-seater | 5–6 | 5–6 large | Family of 5–6, moderate luggage |
| 7-seater taxi | 6–7 | 6–7 large | Family of 7, group holiday |
| 8-seater minibus | 7–8 | 7–8 large | Extended group, heavy luggage |
For all five London airports, the 6-seater MPV, 7-seater, and 8-seater are booked identically through the online booking form. Select the vehicle size, enter your airport and terminal, and the system confirms the appropriate vehicle at the appropriate fare. For groups of 9 or more, see our 8-seater minibus hire page and 6-seater hire with driver page for larger vehicle options.
7 Seater Taxi vs Train — Each Airport Compared
| Airport | Train per person | 6 train tickets | 7-seater total | Saving with taxi |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Heathrow (Elizabeth line) | £10–£12 | £60–£72 | £75–£110 | Train cheaper solo / taxi from 4+ pax |
| Gatwick (Express) | £20–£22 | £120–£132 | £80–£120 | £0–£52 |
| Stansted (Express) | £19–£22 | £114–£132 | £90–£130 | £0–£42 |
| Luton (Thameslink + shuttle) | £16–£22 | £96–£132 | £85–£120 | £0–£47 |
| London City (DLR/Elizabeth) | £4–£6 | £24–£36 | £55–£75 | Train cheaper for all group sizes |
The 7 seater taxi is cheaper than combined train tickets for groups of 5 or more to Gatwick, Stansted, and Luton from Central London. For Heathrow via the Elizabeth line (at £10 to £12 per person), the taxi becomes cost-competitive from 6 passengers upwards. For London City Airport via the DLR (at £4 to £6), the train remains cheaper for all group sizes — the taxi's advantage for London City is purely convenience and luggage handling, not cost.
Group-Specific Scenarios — All Airports
Family holiday groups — all airports
The 7 seater taxi for families all airports scenario is the most common group transfer in London. Families of 5 to 7 people heading on a package holiday typically have one or two large suitcases per adult, child bags, a pushchair for younger children, and assorted hand luggage. The departure airport for package holidays varies: Gatwick and Stansted are the primary budget airline hubs (easyJet, Ryanair, TUI), while Heathrow handles most long-haul family destinations. For a family group, the critical advantage of the 7 seater airport taxi is that all passengers and all luggage travel together from one pickup address. There is no coordinating at a station, no managing children across platform changes, and no negotiating whether a pushchair fits in a train carriage.
Corporate groups — all airports
The 8 seater taxi all airports service for corporate groups covers business teams travelling to client meetings, conferences, or international connections at any of the five airports. From a City of London office, a team of 6 heading to a Heathrow Terminal 2 flight for a European business trip pays approximately £80 to £110 in a 7-seater. The same team taking the Elizabeth line from Bank or Liverpool Street pays £60 to £72 in tickets but handles their own luggage across the platform and cannot coordinate as a group in a single vehicle. The corporate group taxi all airports service delivers the team together, professionally presented, with luggage managed, at a total cost often lower than 6 individual business-class train tickets.
Groups splitting across multiple airports
Some travelling groups depart from different London airports on the same trip. A common scenario: a group of 8 with some members flying from Heathrow and others from Gatwick. The 7 seater taxi all airports booking covers both legs as separate journeys. Book an 8-seater from the group's common address to Heathrow for the first departure group, and a second 7-seater (or MPV) for the Gatwick group. Both bookings are made simultaneously via the online form. The minibus to all airports service for groups splitting at departure can also be structured as a sequential drop-off if the airports are in the same general direction, though this requires advance arrangement via the contact page.
24/7 Group Transfers to All Airports
The 7 seater taxi all airports 24 hours service covers the full range of departure times that budget airlines impose on their passengers. A 6am Ryanair from Stansted requires a group to leave Central London at approximately 3:30am. A 5am easyJet from Gatwick requires departure from North London at approximately 3am. A late-night Emirates departure from Heathrow Terminal 3 at 11pm requires a Central London pickup at approximately 9pm. All of these are covered at the same confirmed fixed fare as a midday Monday booking. No overnight surcharge, no late-night premium, no variation in service quality based on departure time.
For arrivals collections at any of the five airports, the 7 seater taxi 24 hour service includes automatic flight monitoring, arrivals hall meet and greet with name board, and 45 minutes of free waiting time. A group arriving at Stansted at 1am on a delayed return Ryanair flight finds their driver in the arrivals hall just as they would at 1pm. The pre-booked group airport transfer is specifically designed to remove the uncertainty from precisely these unpredictable arrival situations.

Planning Your Group Transfer to Any London Airport
The practical challenge of getting a group to any London airport on time starts not with the taxi booking but with the flight time. Budget airlines in particular are unforgiving about check-in cut-offs — Ryanair at Stansted and easyJet at Gatwick typically close check-in 40 minutes before departure. For a group of 7 arriving at a budget terminal in a single 7-seater, the check-in queue is usually the fastest part of the morning once the ground transport is handled. The journey itself, and the time required to travel it, is the planning input that determines when the vehicle needs to leave your door.
Working backwards from a flight departure is the most reliable framework. Take the departure time, subtract the airline's check-in cut-off, then subtract a security buffer (20 to 30 minutes at Stansted or Luton, 30 to 45 minutes at Heathrow Terminal 5 during peak summer), then subtract the journey time from your pickup postcode to your specific airport terminal. The result is when the 7 seater taxi all airports needs to depart. For a group of 7 in a 7-seater, loading the vehicle with all luggage takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes at pickup — add this to the calculation and set the driver arrival time accordingly.
Different airports have different traffic profiles at different times. Heathrow via M4 is most congested between 7am and 9am and 4pm to 7pm on weekdays. Stansted via M11 has lighter traffic patterns than the M4 and M23 corridors but is affected by A12/M25 junction congestion during Friday afternoons in summer. Gatwick via M23 can be affected by M25 J8 to J7 congestion southbound. Luton via M1 is affected by M1 J5 to J10 traffic on weekday mornings. London City via East London is affected by A13 and Blackwall Tunnel congestion at peak hours. For all five airports, the 7 seater all airports 24 hours service means you can depart before peak traffic if the flight time allows — the pre-dawn 3am pickup for an early Stansted flight avoids all M11 congestion entirely.
The group taxi all airports service is most effectively booked at the same time as the flights — the moment you know the airport, terminal, and departure time, the booking information is complete. Add your full pickup address, declare luggage accurately (this determines whether you need the 6-seater MPV, 7-seater, or 8-seater), and confirm. The group airport transfer london booking at Gatwick Taxi Transfer is confirmed instantly with all driver details provided 24 hours before travel. Book via gatwicktaxitransfer.com.
Why Groups Travel Better in a Single Vehicle
The argument for booking a 7 seater taxi to any London airport over splitting into smaller vehicles or using public transport comes down to one thing that travel planning guides rarely address directly: the moment before departure when seven people and seven suitcases are in one place at one time. Coordinating that moment — the collection of everyone from a single address, the loading of all the luggage, the confirmation that nothing has been forgotten, and the departure at the agreed time — is far more manageable in a single pre-booked vehicle than in any alternative arrangement.
Two smaller taxis mean two arrivals, two boot-loading sequences, two separate conversations with two drivers about the route, and the implicit anxiety that one of the two will be delayed. Public transport for seven people with seven large suitcases on any of the London airport rail routes means platform queues, luggage rack negotiations, and the low-level stress of staying together as a group through ticket barriers and interchanges during peak travel periods. The 7 seater taxi to all five London airports is not simply a vehicle — it is a coordination mechanism that resolves the most chaotic part of any group journey before the group has even left the house.
