A3/M25/M11 — bypasses central London
Air-conditioned & luggage-friendly
The Portsmouth to Stansted Airport journey covers approximately 110 miles and takes between 2 hours and 2 hours 30 minutes depending on traffic conditions. The primary route heads north from Portsmouth on the A3(M) and A3 past Petersfield and Guildford, then joins the M25 clockwise and continues north-east onto the M11 which runs directly into Stansted Airport at Junction 8. This route skirts around the eastern edge of London — you never enter central London at all. An alternative route via the A27 → M23 → M25 → M11 through Chichester and Crawley can be used when the A3/Guildford section is congested, while during extreme M25 traffic, a cross-country route via the A3 → A31 → M3 → M25 → M11 through Farnham may prove faster. Early morning departures for dawn flights often complete in around 2 hours when roads are clear. During weekday peak hours — particularly on the A3 around Guildford and the M25 between Junctions 10 and 27 — the drive may extend to approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. Our drivers use real-time traffic navigation to choose the fastest route on the day.
