Luton rules

Good to know before you travel

These are Luton’s own rules for cars dropping off and picking up, and what they mean for your fare.

  • £9 drop-off charge: included

    Luton charges £9 for up to 12 minutes in its Drop Off and Pick Up Zone, with a maximum stay of 30 minutes. Luton’s £9 drop-off charge is already included in your quoted fare. If a drop-off takes longer than Luton’s first 12 minutes, the airport’s extra charge is added to your fare.

  • A short walk to the terminal

    The Drop Off and Pick Up Zone is about a five-minute walk from the terminal, so allow a few extra minutes, especially with heavy bags. Charges are taken by number-plate camera and are part of your fare.

  • Pickups: your driver parks and comes in

    Your driver parks at the airport and comes into the terminal to meet you in the arrivals hall, rather than waiting at the kerb. That’s why Luton pickups include an airport car-parking charge.

We have used AZ for airport pick ups/drop offs a number of times over the years. Most recently was for another midnight arrival into Gatwick. Pick up worked flawlessly and we were on the road home very quickly after landing. Always friendly drivers and easy to book - happy to support a local family business.

Pre booked a cab from Heathrow to Central London. Everything was perfect. Very reliable and reasonable rates. Came highly recommended from a friend and I can see why. Will be using them for all my pre- booking requirements in England.

The driver arrived ten minutes before and kindly offered to start the trip earlier. He also offered to charge my phone and even gave me a coin for the airport trolley. Great service, would definitely recommend. Thank you!

Excellent service from start-to-finish. A very clean car arrived on time and smoothly delivered us to London Gatwick. The driver was very smartly dressed too! The only thing that could have been added to the service was a courtesy call or text the day before to confirm the booking, especially when a booking is made well in advance. Thank you AZ Cars!

I use AZ to Heathrow and other London airports monthly for work over last few years. At both late and morning times often fairly last minute notice. Never once had a delay or issue. Reliable/punctual and good drivers with no fuss (esp Ali). Definately reccomend.

I contacted AZ cars whilst abroad (via WhatsApp) to arrange pick up from the airport for me & my family, we were travelling with 3 young children, 7 large suitcases and a buggy! From quick responses during the conversation to prompt confirmation, and then actual pickup, the service was nothing less than amazing! We were contacted by the driver by the time we landed at 6am, he was polite and waiting with clear signage at the meeting point. He helped us with our cases at pickup and drop off which was so helpful considering the amount of luggage and the kids. And for what could have been a really expensive journey their price was affordable and fair. Thank you so much for the great customer service throughout and making the journey home seamless! Will definitely use again and also recommend :)

Luton FAQ

Luton transfer questions

From Wandsworth it usually takes about an hour and a quarter, depending on traffic and the time of day. Allow extra time in weekday rush hours and on busy holiday weekends.

What time should I be picked up for my Luton flight?

Check how early your airline asks you to arrive, then allow for the journey and traffic. Tell us your flight time when you book and we’ll suggest a pickup time.

How far ahead should I book my Luton transfer?

As soon as you know your flight times. All our journeys are pre-booked, and for early-morning flights and busy times it’s best to book as early as you can. Need a car at short notice? Call 020 8874 2000 and we’ll tell you how quickly we can get to you.

Which terminal does Luton use?

We track your flight free of charge and adjust your pickup to when you actually land. Just give us the right flight number when you book.

Where will I meet my driver at Luton?

Your driver meets you at an agreed spot in the arrivals hall, such as a café or shop, holding a name board, and we’ll tell you which one. By default that’s 45 minutes after landing; tell us if you’re travelling with hand luggage only. If you can’t find your driver, call us on 020 8874 2000 before making other plans.

Can my driver pick me up outside the terminal?

Your driver parks at the airport and comes into the terminal to meet you in the arrivals hall, rather than waiting at the kerb. Pickups include an airport car-parking charge. There’s no free waiting period. Full details are in our booking terms.

Luton charges £9 for up to 12 minutes in its Drop Off and Pick Up Zone, with a maximum stay of 30 minutes. Luton’s £9 drop-off charge is already included in your quoted fare. Minicabs aren’t exempt.

Can I book my return journey at the same time?

Yes. Book both journeys together and give us the details for each: your departure flight for the way out, and your return flight number and landing time for the way back. We track your return flight, so your pickup moves if it lands early or late.

Which car should I book for my luggage?

A saloon takes up to 4 passengers with 1 large case and 2 small bags; an estate takes 3 large cases; an executive car takes up to 4 passengers with 2 large cases and 2 small bags; an MPV seats up to 6 with 4 large cases. See our fleet & luggage guide, or call 020 8874 2000 if you’re not sure.
