The route
Manchester to Gatwick, door-to-door.
About 255 miles via the M6, M40 and M25, typically 4 hours 15 minutes in normal traffic and longer when the M25 is loaded. An R5 chauffeur collects you from any Manchester or Greater Manchester address and drops you at the correct Gatwick terminal (North or South). We run the same service in reverse from Gatwick back to Manchester, with the same meet and greet and flight tracking as our Manchester Airport chauffeur service.
We confirm a fixed one-way fare in writing when you book, with no surge pricing, no motorway surcharge and no meter. Choose a Mercedes E-Class or Range Rover for one or two passengers, or a Mercedes V-Class or VIP Sprinter for groups of up to 8. The full executive fleet is available on this route.

Frequently asked.
It depends on your pickup address, vehicle class and timing, so we quote each Gatwick journey individually. Send your route through the quote form or call 0161 327 4199 and we confirm a fixed one-way fare in writing before you travel. Your written quote covers the agreed journey, with no motorway surcharge and no surge pricing.
About 4 hours 15 minutes door-to-door in normal traffic. The drive is 255 miles via the M6, M40 and M25. We recommend departing Manchester at least 6 hours before a Gatwick flight, 7 hours in peak times (Friday afternoons, Monday mornings, bank holidays) when the M25 is loaded.
Both: North Terminal and South Terminal. Check your terminal on your airline booking, tell us when you request a quote, and we drop you at the correct kerb. There is a free inter-terminal shuttle if needed.
For the return from Gatwick, we track your inbound flight, so your chauffeur works to the actual landing time and meets you with a name board at the meeting point we confirm for your booking. The first 60 minutes of waiting after landing are free.
Yes, if we have a car free. For a same-day booking, call 0161 327 4199 between 08:00 and 21:00. We may add a short-notice charge to trips booked within 4 hours of pickup.
For one or two people, off-peak rail (Manchester Piccadilly → Euston, then the Gatwick Express from Victoria) covers the distance at a lower headline fare, three changes including the tube, with luggage to manage throughout. For three or more people, or anyone with material, kit, or prototypes, the chauffeur option is competitive on total cost and faster door-to-door. Ask for a fixed quote and compare.
Yes, where timing allows. Book outbound and return at the same time and we'll keep the same chauffeur and vehicle for both directions.
