Local knowledge
Tips for the Heathrow Airport to Brighton run
- Long-haul arrivals often mean a slow passport queue and a wait at the baggage belt. If you expect that, ask for extra free waiting time when you book.
- Heading south in the late afternoon, the M25 towards the M23 is at its slowest, so a 4–7pm landing will usually mean a longer drive home.
- Tell us the terminal printed on your ticket. Flights are sometimes switched between terminals, and we check on the day.
- Travelling with young children or after an overnight flight? Book a 6-seater or 7–8 seater so there is space to stretch out.
