Sourcing

Every price, charge and timetable is checked against a primary source: the airport's own website first, then the named operator (for example the named operator, or the relevant car park operator for parking tariffs). We record and display the date we last checked a figure.

What we won't do

We don't invent a number to fill a gap. Where a fare isn't published as a fixed price by any operator, we show a realistic range and label it indicative rather than state a precise figure we can't stand behind.

Live travel updates

Updates in /news are either written by an editor from a checked source, or generated automatically from live departure-board data and clearly credited as automated. Automated posts report only what the data shows, delay counts, cancellation counts, without speculating on cause, and are updated or closed out as the situation changes rather than left stale.

Corrections

Getting a taxi or transfer Need a door-to-door taxi? For fixed-price, flight-tracked transfers to and from Gatwick Airport, we recommend 247 UK Airport Taxi. Your fare is fixed and quoted before you travel, so drop-off charges, night surcharges and traffic never change what you pay.

We recommend a transport partner and may earn a referral fee. It never changes what you pay, and we only list options we would use ourselves.
