RAF Lakenheath airport taxi: Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and more

RAF Lakenheath sits close to the village of Lakenheath in Suffolk, about 20 road miles from our home town of Bury St Edmunds. We provide pre-booked private hire transfers between RAF Lakenheath and the main London airports, for service personnel, families, contractors and visitors.

Many of our customers arrive in the UK after a long flight with family and luggage and need a calm, reliable ride to Suffolk. Others are heading out on leave or duty travel and want a confirmed early pickup rather than hoping a taxi is free. Either way, the price is agreed before you travel.

How our prices work

These are guide prices. Your price becomes fixed once you confirm your pickup point, and you see it before you book. There is no surge pricing. A 15% overnight charge applies when the journey starts between 11:00 pm and 4:00 am, based on the time you get in the car. Our full price list shows every pickup area and destination. We accept card and cash.

Where we pick you up

We do not have a pass to enter RAF Lakenheath, so we meet you at the visitor centre or the main gate. Tell us which you prefer when you book, and we will confirm the exact meeting point with you in advance. If you are staying off base, for example at a hotel, we can also collect you from that address. If you are travelling from the nearby town, see our Lakenheath airport transfers page.

Where your driver meets you at the airport

• Stansted — Drop-off/Pick-up area, Zone B. Meet and greet inside the terminal is available on request as a paid add-on.
• Heathrow — inside the terminal: Terminal 2 and Terminal 3 at WH Smith, Terminal 4 at Costa Coffee, Terminal 5 at Pret A Manger.
• Gatwick — Pret A Manger, at either the North or South Terminal. Tell us which terminal you are landing at when you book.

Flight tracking, waiting time and luggage

We track your flight, not the clock. If your flight time changes, your pickup adjusts with it. You get 1 hour of free waiting time after your flight lands. After that, waiting time is charged at £25 per hour, payable directly to the driver on request. Our standard vehicle is a sedan for 1–4 passengers. If you are travelling with a larger group or a lot of luggage, please contact us before booking.
