Per vehicle, not per person. Tolls, congestion and crossing charges are already inside the price, and it does not change on the day.
The public-transport version starts at Bethnal Green (the Central line) and finishes at Alexandra Palace (National Rail), with a 20-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that it is a steep uphill walk unless you wait for the shuttle. A car does the whole thing door to door in about 25 min, or 45 min when the roads are full - and it does it with your bags in the boot. Two people with hand luggage should take the train. Three or more, or anyone with a case, and the fixed fare splits better than the tickets do.
From the E2 streets the route runs via the A1209 then the A107, finishing on A406 North Circular, then Bounds Green Road. That is about 8.4 miles. Reckon 25 min off-peak and 45 min if you are crossing town at the wrong moment.
We cover the whole of Bethnal Green - E2 - including the streets where flagging something down is a matter of luck rather than timing.
The Palm Court entrance on Alexandra Palace Way. The hill up to the Palace is steep and the internal roads run one-way on event nights, so pickup is at Palm Court rather than the car parks. Your driver sends the exact standing point and the registration before they set off, so you are not circling a car park looking for a number plate.
Address: Alexandra Palace Way, Wood Green, N22 7AY.
Parking at Alexandra Palace is limited and the surrounding streets are metered or permit-only, so self-driving usually costs more in time than the fare saves. Being dropped at the door and collected at an agreed point removes the whole problem.
Doors are usually an hour before the show. Working back, that means leaving Bethnal Green around 45 min plus that hour on a busy night - and booking the return at the same time, because the road out is slower than the road in.

Door to door the car is about 25 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Bethnal Green to Alexandra Palace plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.
The Palm Court entrance on Alexandra Palace Way. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.
Yes, and it is the leg worth booking. The driver is in position before you come out instead of you joining the queue that forms the moment it ends.
Card, bank transfer or a business account, before or after the journey. A VAT receipt is issued either way.
No. The fare is fixed when you book. Traffic, tolls and the hour are our problem, not a line on your bill.
