Brighton to Heathrow Airport Taxi
There is no direct train from Brighton to Heathrow, which is why so many of our longer airport runs head there. The car takes the A23 and M23 north, then the M25 clockwise round to the airport — one seat, one driver, and your cases stay in the boot until you reach the terminal.

At each end
Pick-up and drop-off
Heathrow has four working terminals. Terminals 2 and 3 share the central area, reached through the tunnel from the M4 spur; Terminal 4 is on the south side of the airfield; Terminal 5 is at the western end, with its own exit from the M25. We set you down on the departures forecourt of the one you need. Heathrow charges every vehicle that uses a terminal drop-off zone. Guide prices include the airport drop-off charge.
Local knowledge
Tips for the Brighton to Heathrow Airport run
- Tell us your terminal as well as your flight time. Terminals 4 and 5 use different approach roads from Terminals 2 and 3, so heading for the wrong one costs real time.
- The M25 between the M23 (junction 7) and the M3 (junction 12) is the unpredictable part of this journey. We build the pick-up time around it.
- For a morning long-haul departure, leaving Brighton before the commuter peak makes the M25 far more reliable.
- Give us your flight departure time and we will suggest a pick-up time that allows for check-in and security.
