Looking for a reliable Knightsbridge to Stansted Airport taxi? Onward Travel Solutions runs fixed-price taxi and private hire transfers between Knightsbridge and Stansted Airport, covering Knightsbridge, Belgravia and the wider SW1/SW7 area. Your fare is agreed before you travel, your flight is tracked automatically, and a driver is waiting for you — so there’s nothing left to work out on the day.
As part of our wider Stansted Airport taxi network, we quote the fare up front so there are no metered surprises on a route that can otherwise run up a big fare sitting in North Circular or M11 traffic.
01The Knightsbridge to Stansted journey
Knightsbridge sits around 40 miles south-west of Stansted Airport. The usual route runs via the A501/A41 or through the Blackwall Tunnel to the A12, then the M11 north to Junction 8, or via the North Circular (A406) and M11 depending on traffic and time of day. In normal traffic the journey takes approximately 65-80 minutes, and we build in extra time for the North Circular and M11’s regular congestion so you’re never left rushing for a flight.
We collect from anywhere in Knightsbridge, including Sloane Street, Brompton Road, Beauchamp Place and the surrounding Belgravia streets. Hotel pickups are no problem — just give us the name and we’ll confirm the exact spot.
