The postcodes
Kensington is W8. Check the part of your own postcode before the space against that list: it is what sets the price, so it is the one thing worth two seconds before you book.
- W8
An address outside those codes is not a refusal. It is priced for the journey you are actually taking, and that price is still fixed before you pay.
Where Kensington is
Around Kensington High Street, Kensington Church Street and the palace.
The nearest stations
- High Street Kensington
- Notting Hill Gate
- Gloucester Road
Your chauffeur comes to the address you give us, not to a station. These are here because somebody arriving by train asks how far the walk is.
When you land
We ask for your flight number when you book and we watch the arrival, so a late landing moves the pickup rather than costing you the car. Your chauffeur meets you inside the terminal, in the arrivals hall, holding a name board.
Going the other way, from Kensington to an airport, your chauffeur comes to the address you gave and telephones you if the kerb outside it cannot be used. Before either pickup you are sent their first name, their driver licence number and the registration of the car.
If a flight is diverted or cancelled, call us on 07887 478594 and we will move or cancel the booking under the policy it was made under.
What the price covers
- Every mandatory charge for the route
- Heathrow parking for the included waiting
- The congestion charge, where the route incurs it
Nothing mandatory is added at checkout, nothing is collected at the barrier, and the price does not change because the traffic did. It is the same figure coming back.

Questions people ask about Kensington
How much is a car from the airport to Kensington?
The published price from each of the seven airports is on this page, in all five classes of car. Each one is the amount charged, with the airport charges, the tolls on the route and your waiting after the aircraft lands already inside it, and it is the same price coming back the other way.
How do you decide which price my address gets?
By the outward code of your address, the part before the space. Kensington is W8, and all of it falls in one price band, so every address in it pays the published price on this page.
What if my address is just outside Kensington?
Then it is priced for the journey you are actually taking rather than from the published grid. The bands on this page cover the postcodes named on it; anywhere else, the form prices your own route and that number is still fixed before you pay, with nothing added afterwards.
Where does the chauffeur wait in Kensington?
At the address you give us. If the kerb outside it cannot be used, your chauffeur telephones you rather than waiting somewhere you cannot see them. Before the pickup you are sent their first name, their driver licence number and the registration of the car, whichever of High Street Kensington, Notting Hill Gate or Gloucester Road you are near.
What happens if my flight is late?
We ask for your flight number and watch the arrival. Your free waiting is counted from the moment the aircraft lands, not from the pickup time you chose, so a delayed flight does not cost you the car.
How do I cancel or change a booking?
Cancel in your account. The refund is worked out from the version of the cancellation policy your booking was made under and shown to you before you confirm anything. To change a booking, use the "Request a change" link on it and we will reply.
