How much does it cost to get to the airport from Southend-on-Sea, & back again?

The price to have a driver take you from Southend-on-Sea to the airport will vary, depending on what you need, which one you're going to, and when you're going.
We always aim to be competitively priced & fairly priced but everyone's needs are different. For example, if there's more than 4 of you travelling together, you may need a minibus; certain times of day mean the road is busier, making the journey-time longer, and that may impact the cost. We've put some guide prices below, but the more you can tell us when asking for a quote, the more accurate the price we give you will be.
Our drivers can take you from Southend-on-Sea to any UK airport. Not just Gatwick & Heathrow, but also including Cambridge Airport, East Midland Airport, Manchester or Birmingham. Below are our most popular airport runs.

Prices from: £120

Distance from Southend-on-Sea to Gatwick Airport

The distance is approximately 60 miles southwest of Southend-on-Sea but there’s several bottlenecks for traffic on the route. These include the Dartford crossing and parts of the M25 so, if you want to arrive at the Gatwick Airport in time for your flight, we recommend leaving Southend with plenty of travel time, especially during peak hours.

It’s better to be sitting at Gatwick Airport sipping a coffee (or something stronger) than starting your trip with a stressful panic & risk missing your flight.

We can also be ready to pick you up from Gatwick Airport, and bring you safely back to Southend when you return. Just give us your flight number and we will keep an eye on your flight’s arrival time in case it is delayed.
