Your driver is waiting with a name board the moment you come through customs into arrivals – not in a car park, not on the phone. We track the flight, so a late landing costs you nothing, and the first 60 minutes after the plane lands are free waiting time. Luggage trolleys, a child seat, a wheelchair-friendly car: tell us when you book and it is ready.
SIM card and money on the way. Still carrying your own currency? That is fine: every car takes cards and contactless, so you need no pounds in hand for the journey. If you want a UK SIM or some cash, say so and your driver will point you to the kiosks in arrivals (SIM cards: WHSmith in arrivals; currency: ICE desk in the terminal) or, usually cheaper, stop at a supermarket, Post Office or bank on the route to Maidstone. Our local drivers know where the fair rates and the working cash machines are – trust them to sort it in minutes.
Disabled-friendly arrival. Special assistance: Tell your airline when booking or at least 48h before departure; the Assisted Travel team meets you; help points including lower level near Gates 20-28. Step-free: Lifts before the departure lounge; DART step-free. Guide & assistance dogs: Register your assistance dog via the airport page; relief area outside the terminal front near bus stop T; airside via Assisted Travel staff. Airport accessibility page Our driver meets you at the assistance desk if you prefer, carries folding wheelchairs and walkers free, and assistance dogs always travel with you at no charge.
Nowhere on the map sits further from Luton than Maidstone, which is exactly why the public-transport version of getting home involves the terminal's DART shuttle, a service south toward London, and then a Southeastern train out to Kent — three handovers stacked on top of a tired landing. We collect at the terminal itself. Board held with your name the moment you clear the gate, your flight followed from wherever it departed so a delay simply moves the pickup, and then one continuous drive: south on the M1, onto the M25, and down the M20 into the county — roughly 75 to 79 miles without a single change of vehicle. Reach 020 8888 9988 whenever the plane actually lands; the desk keeps no closing time.
| PICKUP | Terminal building itself | NAME BOARD |
| ROAD | M1 → M25 → M20 | ~1H20-1H40 |
| DART | Airport's own shuttle | NOT NEEDED |
| FARE | Written before you land | NO SURGE |
Why this matters most here: of every airport pairing on Maidstone's map, this one asks the most of public transport — three separate systems for a single journey. Replacing that with one car isn't a minor convenience; it's the difference between a tolerable trip home and a genuinely difficult one.

Every quote below is reproduced word for word from a genuine, public five-star Google review of Get London Transfer. Nothing polished, nothing invented.

"Our car transfer service was smooth and convenient. I appreciated that the company monitored our flight both before departure and upon arrival, demonstrating great attention to detail, clear communication, and excellent personalised customer service. The ride was comfortable, and the driver was courteous. Despite the tube strike, the service made our journey hassle-free and stress-free. Highly recommend!"
"We arranged a transfer from the O2 arena to Hampshire after a concert with kids. Really good comms up front, sorted a large vehicle, gave me the drivers contact the day before. the driver arrived early and gave perfect details to find him in a very busy area, drove very smoothly, in fact a very smooth process end to end, much needed after a late night, thank you!"
"Great experience as we booked to pick us up from Tottenham stadium after a concert, and take us back to Wickford. Communication from start to finish was excellent. Mr Mukul was fantastic, and made it easy for us to find him, due to all the road closures etc near the venue. Would recommend, and will use again with no hesitation."

Right at the terminal itself — no shuttle, no car park hunt. A board with your name, and an aircraft that's been tracked since it left the ground, so a late landing changes nothing about the arrangement.
Generally 1 hour 20 to 1 hour 40 for the roughly 75-79 miles, tracing the M1 south from Junction 10, onto the M25, and along the M20 into the county.
Only if patience outweighs everything else. The DART, then a southbound rail leg, then Southeastern into Kent — three separate systems adding up to around two hours, and still finishing at a station rather than your door. A direct car covers similar time without any of the changes.
Regularly — guests and residents around the castle and its surrounding villages are a familiar booking, collected straight from the terminal.
One figure, settled in writing before you fly — pass your flight and Kent address to WhatsApp dispatch and expect an answer within minutes.
Every day — its own page walks through the departure planning: Maidstone to Luton taxi. Book both together and one desk manages the full round trip.
Our drivers get asked for these every day, so here is the shortlist we give in the car. Prices are from the venues’ own menus and booking sites (seen October 2026); tap the Google Maps link for photos, today’s menu and star ratings. Want a stop on the way? Say so when you book and the driver will wait.
Fish & chips
Sunday roast
English breakfast
Afternoon tea
Pies
British pale ale
Vegan & vegetarian
Souvenirs & British brands
Tipping: 10–12.5% service is often added in restaurants, never in pubs or chippies. Most places take cards; a few old caffs and Sam Smith’s pubs are cash-only. Vegan and gluten-free options are marked on almost every London menu – just ask. The airport shops sell the same tea tins and biscuits at 2–3 times the supermarket price, so buy souvenirs in town.

A board waiting at the terminal, your flight watched from takeoff, and one continuous drive via the M1, M25 and M20 — no DART, no London change, one written fare.
