Confirm exact pick-up point
Communicate your cruise terminal and disembarkation time in advance so the driver can meet you in the arrivals area.
Count your suitcases
Know how many large and carry-on bags you have—vehicle sizes are limited and extra luggage can require an upgrade.
Build buffer time
Allow additional time for M27/M25 congestion and airport drop-off procedures, especially during weekday mornings.
Choose low-emission vehicle
Request an electric or hybrid car if you prefer a smaller carbon footprint and quieter cabin on the route.
Passport or photo ID
Required for disembarkation and airport check-in—keep it accessible.
Phone and charger/power bank
For driver contact, mobile boarding passes and navigation updates.
Luggage tags and list
Label bags and keep a brief inventory to speed transfers and claims if needed.
Light waterproof jacket
Useful if there's a short walk between ship gangway and pick-up point in cool or wet weather.
