M40/M25/M11 — bypasses central London
Air-conditioned & luggage-friendly
The Oxford to Stansted Airport journey covers approximately 90 miles and takes between 1 hour 45 minutes and 2 hours 15 minutes depending on traffic conditions. The primary route heads south-east from Oxford on the M40 towards London, then joins the M25 clockwise (via the Chilterns) and continues north-east onto the M11 which runs directly into Stansted Airport at Junction 8. This motorway route skirts around the northern edge of London — you never enter central London at all. An alternative route via the A34 south → A41 → M25 → M11 through Bicester is sometimes used when the M40/M25 interchange is congested, while a cross-country route via the A41 → A421 → M1 → A14 → M11 through Aylesbury and Bedford avoids the M25 entirely and can be faster during peak motorway traffic. Early morning departures for dawn flights often complete in around 1 hour 45 minutes when roads are clear. During weekday peak hours — particularly on the M25 between the M40 and M11 junctions — the drive may extend to approximately 2 hours 15 minutes. Our drivers use real-time traffic navigation to choose the fastest route on the day.
