Rustington to Gatwick.
£90, fixed and all-in.
Rustington's on our coast fares, just £10 more than Worthing because it's a little further for us to come. That's a fixed £90 per car to either Gatwick terminal, day or night. The drop-off charge is included, and every booking has a standby driver.
Taking off on the 1st of November
Bookings open on the 1st of November. These are our launch fares. Leave your number and you'll be the first to hear from us.
£90 one way.
£170 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 £10 more; six of you and a buggy means a people carrier, £30 more, and nobody sits on anybody. An extra pickup is £5, and it's the same price there and back: landing shouldn't cost extra.
How long does it take?
From Rustington we usually head up the A280 to the A24 and through the Downs to Gatwick, or along the A27 and up the A23 if that's quicker on the day. The A259 and the A27 junctions 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 | 55 minutes |
| Weekday daytime | 1 hour 5 minutes |
| Weekday rush hour, Friday afternoons, bank holidays | up to 1 hour 20 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 | 02:50 |
| 10:00 | 06:25 |
| 14:00 | 10:40 |
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. Flight delayed? We already know, and your driver's having another coffee. Landed at the other terminal? The free shuttle between them takes a couple of minutes.
Rustington and around, one price
From the seafront to East Preston and Angmering, it's £90 to Gatwick and £130 to Heathrow: just £10 more than Worthing.
Questions from Rustington
Is East Preston the same price?Yes. East Preston, Angmering and Ferring are on our coast fares too, so it's £90 to Gatwick, the same as Rustington.
There are four of us. How much?Still £90. The price is per car: a saloon takes four people and three big cases, and an estate takes four or five cases for £10 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.
Why aren't you the cheapest?Because we pay our drivers properly. Some apps squeeze their drivers to shave a few pounds off your fare; we'd rather pay ours and have them turn up. Happier drivers take pride in the job and arrive on time, every time. That's the promise in our logo, and we mean it.
Do you do local journeys?We specialise in longer ones: airports, events, sim runs and term-time school runs. For a quick hop to the station or the GP, a local firm is your best bet. Anything with a motorway in it, we're your people. It keeps our cars clean and calm, too: no 2am chip-shop runs, so no crumbs on your seat.
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 Rustington to Gatwick taxi, this is the calmer way to do it.
Airport run? Airlink it.
Fixed fares, a driver who turns up, a standby driver on every booking and a person who answers the phone. Bookings open on the 1st of November: request your price, ring 01903 331 333 or WhatsApp us.
