What does a Gatwick to Brighton transfer include?
A short, direct run south: one chauffeur and one car from Gatwick to your door, or back again. Airport parking and fuel are included. Every booking comes with four things:
Met inside your terminal
Whether you land at North or South, your chauffeur waits just past customs with a name board. Your bags go from the belt to the car. Want to be met at the aircraft door instead? Our Gatwick meet and assist escorts you through passport control to the car.
Flight tracked, waiting included
Your flight is tracked live, so the pickup follows the real touchdown, early or late. We wait the first 60 minutes after landing at no charge.
Any Brighton or Hove address
Seafront hotels, Hove flats, University of Sussex halls at Falmer or the Royal Sussex County Hospital. Your chauffeur stops at the door you choose.
One fare for the whole car
The price is for the car, whoever travels.
How do I book a Brighton to Gatwick private car for my flight?
Use your Brighton or Hove address as the pickup and your terminal as the drop. Or open the Brighton to Gatwick booking form, where Brighton is already entered. The car pulls up at departures for your terminal.
Airlines ask you to reach the airport 3 hours before take-off, so we count back from that and allow up to an hour for the drive. For a 07:00 flight, that means Gatwick by 04:00 and leaving Brighton at about 03:00.
The fare at 04:00 is the same as at 10:00. Give us the flight number and we fix the pickup time with you in writing.
Need both legs, say from Gatwick to the coast now and back for a flight in a week? Pick Return (new ride) in the form, and one reference covers both journeys.
How long is the drive from Gatwick to Brighton?
Allow 40 to 60 minutes for about 28 miles. The chauffeur joins the motorway south at the airport and crosses the South Downs into Brighton. If you are staying in London, our Brighton and Seven Sisters day trip pairs the seafront with the chalk cliffs.
Coming down from Gatwick, the road reaches Brighton at its northern edge. Preston Park comes a few minutes before the seafront, with Hove to the right and Kemp Town left.
Pickups run around the clock. The motorway is quiet before 06:00, and the chauffeur is at your door at the time we agree.

Where does the chauffeur meet me at Gatwick?

Our Gatwick North and South Terminal guide shows which airlines use which side.
Can’t see your name board? Ring the number on your confirmation while still in the hall. Your chauffeur is inside already, and one call brings you together fast.
How much is a private car to Hove, the Marina, Falmer or Lewes?
The chauffeur stops at the address you type in, at the door a car can reach. The fare follows the road distance, so each area has its own price from Gatwick, one way:
- Hove from £165 in an E‑Class
from £190 in a V‑Class - University of Sussex, Falmer from £165 in an E‑Class
from £195 in a V‑Class - Brighton Marina from £180 in an E‑Class
from £210 in a V‑Class - Lewes from £155 in an E‑Class
from £180 in a V‑Class
Three drops need a word in the notes:
- Seafront hotels most face the sea, west or east of the Palace Pier. The car stops by the front door; where a hotel opens onto a side street or a lane, tell us its name and we plan the stop around it, so the bags travel only a few steps.
- Brighton Marina east of Kemp Town at the end of the seafront road. Name the apartment block, the hotel or the boardwalk entrance in the notes and the chauffeur sets you down there, not in the multi-storey car park.
- University of Sussex, Falmer the car turns off towards Lewes before the city, so the campus is reached without crossing the centre. Parking on campus is limited, so it is a drop at the residence or building you name; on moving-in day the V-Class takes the boxes too.
