Lancing & Sompting to Gatwick.

Launching this winter
We're not taking bookings yet: our operator licence is on its way. These are our launch fares, and the day it arrives this page becomes the booking page. Leave your number and we'll tell you first.
£80 one way.
£150 there and back.
One price per car, not per person, the same at 4am as at 4pm. Gatwick's £10 drop-off charge is already inside it. Estate cars are £5 more, people carriers £30 more, and an extra pickup on the way is £5.
How long does it take?
Lancing and Sompting sit on the A27, and the run to Gatwick usually goes east along it and up the A23 and M23. The A27 through Lancing and Shoreham can crawl at rush hour, so weekday morning pickups get a little extra time.
| When you travel | Door to terminal, roughly |
|---|---|
| Overnight, before about 5am | 45 minutes |
| Weekday daytime | 55 minutes |
| Weekday rush hour, Friday afternoons, bank holidays | up to 70 minutes |
A guide, not a promise. We time every pickup for the traffic on the day.
When we'd pick you up
We work back from the airline's advice: Gatwick suggests arriving two hours before UK and Irish flights, two to three before European ones and three before long-haul. Then we add the drive for that hour. On a weekday in November, for a flight to Europe:
| Your flight takes off | Your driver's at the door |
|---|---|
| 06:00 | 03:00 |
| 10:00 | 06:35 |
| 14:00 | 10:50 |
School holidays or small children? We add time for each, and we'll tell you the pickup when you book.
North or South Terminal?
Your airline booking says which. Tell us when you book and we'll drop you at the right door. Coming home, your driver waits in the arrivals hall in front of M&S with a Sussex Airlink name board, and your first hour of waiting from the moment you actually land is free. Landed at the other terminal? The free shuttle between them takes a couple of minutes.
Lancing and Sompting, one price
From the beach to North Lancing and Sompting village, it's £80 to Gatwick and £120 to Heathrow, the same as Worthing.
Questions from Lancing and Sompting
Is Sompting the same price?Yes. Sompting is part of our Lancing area, so it's £80 to Gatwick, the same as Lancing and Worthing.
There are four of us. How much?Still £80. The price is per car: a saloon takes four people and three big cases, and an estate takes four or five cases for £5 more.
Our flight home lands late. Will you wait?We track the flight and move the pickup to match, free. Your first hour of waiting from the moment you actually land costs nothing.
Is this a taxi?It's the pre-booked version: private hire at a fixed price agreed before you travel. No meter and no surge, and because you can't hail us, the price can't move on the day. If you were searching for a Lancing to Gatwick taxi, this is the calmer way to do it.
