About Gatwick Airport

Gatwick Airport is in West Sussex, south of London and has two terminals, North and South, linked by a free shuttle. Check which terminal your airline uses before you book, as North and South have separate drop-off areas. Tell the operator your terminal (if there is more than one) and your flight number so they can plan the pickup.

Drop-off and pickup

Like most UK airports, Gatwick Airport charges cars to use the drop-off area outside the terminal, and pickups normally use the short-stay car park. Ask whether these charges are included in your quote. Check the airport's own website for current charges and any roadworks.

Plan your timing

Airlines usually recommend arriving 2 hours before short-haul and 3 hours before long-haul flights. Add time for traffic and the drop-off queue, particularly at weekends and during school holidays.
