How Long Does Twickenham to Gatwick Take?
Being on the western side of London, Twickenham to Gatwick is a cross-city run, typically taking 55 to 75 minutes depending on whether your driver routes via the A316 and M25, or cuts down through Kingston and Sutton to avoid motorway queues. Match days at the Stadium can add significant delay, so we plan around the fixture calendar wherever possible.
Our Fixed-Price Twickenham to Gatwick Taxi Service
Onward Travel Solutions offers a fixed-price taxi to Gatwick and taxi from Gatwick for residents across Twickenham, agreed in advance so you know exactly what you’re paying regardless of how long the M25 decides to hold you up. Our drivers hold full private hire licences and insurance, and every airport taxi to Gatwick booking includes live flight tracking as standard.
We understand Twickenham traffic can swing wildly depending on rugby fixtures at the stadium, so our controllers build in contingency time on match weekends without charging extra for it.
Gatwick North and South Terminal Transfers
We’ll ask which terminal your airline uses when you book, since a Gatwick North Terminal taxi and a Gatwick South Terminal taxi arrive at different parts of the airport entirely. On the way home we watch Gatwick departures in real time, so if your flight is delayed, your driver simply adjusts and waits.
Vehicle Options for Your Journey
Plenty of our Twickenham passengers are heading to watch sport abroad or travelling as a rugby touring party, and for that we recommend our 8 seater minibus or the larger 12 seater minibus hire so kit bags and group luggage all travel together. Couples and solo travellers can simply book a standard saloon.
Larger school trips or extended families flying out together often need our 16 seater minibus hire, while smaller family groups tend to choose one of our 8 seater cars for a bit more comfort than a standard estate.
Meet and Greet at Gatwick Terminals
When you land back at Gatwick, your driver will already be inside the terminal building holding a board with your name, having tracked your flight from take-off. There’s no standing around in the arrivals hall wondering if your lift has arrived.

No, our fixed price stays the same, though we do add extra journey time into your pickup schedule to account for road closures near the Stadium.
What if I only search “taxi near me” the night before?
We accept short-notice bookings when drivers are available, but booking a few days ahead guarantees your car and locks your price.
