Please be aware that one journey counts as one way between the airport and your pick up/drop off address. The Guest List package is only valid travelling between London Gatwick/London Heathrow and your home address.

Please note: If you initially book a package for e.g. two people for two car rides costing £500, and then you are unable to travel together, further costs will be payable if you need to split your journey, and both still require the Guest List.

For example:

2 people travelling together and requiring 2 car rides = £500

2 people then splitting their booking and travelling separately = 2 x £400 = £800

In this example you will be charged an additional £300
