  • Pets

    The only permitted travel is Assistance Dogs, under the Equality Act 2010, taxi and private hire vehicle (PHV) drivers in the UK must carry assistance dogs (such as guide or hearing dogs) at no extra charge. A driver can only refuse an assistance dog if they hold a valid medical exemption certificate (usually for severe allergies) issued by their local authority, which must be clearly displayed in the vehicle.

  • Short Trips Of 20 Minutes or Under

    Please send your enquiry details — your name, pickup address, time, drop‑off location, and how many people will be travelling via WhatsApp to +44 7788 665846.

  • Event or Venue Pickups Are No Longer Available After 23:00 Hours

    Apologies, I no longer provide a pickup service from events or venues after 23:00 hrs, this is due to early morning airport drop-off or pickup bookings, whereby I need enough rest to avoid driver fatigue.

  • Airport Bookings

    No additional charges apply for unsociable hours or public holidays. The price quoted covers all airport fees. GUARANTEED.

  • Required Details for Airport Transfers

    You must have confirmed travel dates, times, and a UK return flight number if returning to the UK before a quotation can be provided.

  • Heathrow, Gatwick, Bournemouth and Southampton Airports

    I offer convenient pickup and drop‑off services across Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Berkshire, West Sussex, and Surrey, ensuring seamless, stree-free travel from start to finish

  • Airport Travel Guide Times

    You’re welcome to use Google Maps to estimate your travel time, including any pickups, but it isn’t always fully accurate. For Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton and Stansted, please add 30–45 minutes for possible delays such as luggage loading, traffic, roadworks or diversions. For travel from Hythe, the New Forest or Southampton, this extra time is already built into the guidance table below.

  • Working Out Your Airport Pickup Time

    Airlines advise arriving 2 hours before UK/European flights and 3 hours before long‑haul. Add this to your recommended departure time below and count back from your flight. This helps you reach the airport calm and on schedule, ready for a stress free start to your holiday.
  • Heathrow T5  2 Hours
    Heathrow T2, T3, T4  2 Hours 15 Minutes
    Gatwick  3 Hours
    Bournemouth  55 Minutes
    Southampton  40 Minutes
    Luton (Drop-off only)  2 Hours 45 Minutes
    Stansted (Drop-off only)  3 Hours 15 Minutes
  • Airport Example How To Calculate A Pickup Time

  • Cruise Ship Boarding Advice
    Your cruise line will issue your official boarding time and terminal allocation, usually 2–3 weeks before departure. As boarding is only permitted within your assigned window, please wait for your confirmed embarkation time before completing this enquiry form. This ensures your drop‑off aligns with the cruise line’s schedule and avoids delays at the terminal.

    If you choose to estimate your time, please note that adjusting your pickup later can be difficult due to fixed schedules. I will always try to assist, but it is strongly recommended to return once your boarding time is confirmed.

  • Cruise Disembarkation Advice
    Your cruise line will provide your official disembarkation time while you are onboard, usually a day or two before arrival unless you have priority disembarkation. You have four options for arranging your collection:

    1—Wait for your confirmed disembarkation time – the most accurate and recommended option.

    2—Book 09:45 hrs as a safe default – I will try to assist if you are allowed off earlier.

    3—Book 10:00 hrs or 10:30 hrs – these latest times cannot be moved once booked.

    4—Call on the day around 07:00 hrs – I will help where possible, but short‑notice availability cannot be guaranteed.

    Waiting for your confirmed time ensures an accurate collection and helps avoid delays or long waits at the terminal.

  • Cruise Ship Quote Requirements
    Quotes can only be issued once you have received your official boarding time from the cruise line, usually 2–3 weeks before departure. This ensures your pickup aligns with the cruise line’s schedule and prevents issues caused by estimated times, which often lead to changes or cancellations that cannot be accommodated or refunded.

    To provide a reliable and fair service for all customers, quotes are only given once your confirmed boarding time has been provided.

  • Sightseeing, Attractions & Tours

    To help your day run smoothly, please check that your preferred attraction is available on your chosen date and secure your tickets online in advance. Allow around 3 hours for any attraction to walk around like Stonehenge, Salisbury, Winchster, Warner Bros Studios, Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey), Windsor Castle or Bombay Sapphire Gin Distillery or 5-6 hours for a full day excursion, plus travelling time, to ensure everything fits within your planned timeframe.

  • St Pancras International Train Station

    Sorry, I only offer drop‑offs at St Pancras International Train Station. Unfortunately, I’m unable to provide pickups from there due to several ongoing issues, including the inability to reliably track train timings, frequent cancellations, no waiting policy and the lack of suitable parking facilities in Central London.

  • Safeguarding Policy

    For any additional pickups or drop-offs, full addresses must be provided. Without this information, your request will be DECLINED and placed at the back of the queue until the details are supplied. This policy is in place to ensure accuracy and safeguards both parties.

  • How To Keep The Quote Low

    If you can keep your pickup and drop‑off to a single address, your wallet will thank you—each additional stop increases the cost of your quote.

  • Quotation Policy Update

    Airport fees and operational costs are changing at an alarming rate at the moment which are outside of my control. For this reason, quotations are only being provided if your travel falls within 4 months of your travel date, as I will then have a better idea of the price for your trip. See below.

  • Quotations are only be issued when your travel date falls within 4 months from today's date: 

    Enquiries are currently being accepted for travel from:
    August 2026 to the end of November 2026

    If your travel date is from December 2026 onwards, please return next month (September) to submit your enquiry. At that point, we will be able to quote for travel up to the end of November 2026.

    Future enquiry windows will open as follows:

  • Bicycles & Bike Boxes

    Unfortunately, I’m unable to transport bicycles or bike boxes, as their size and shape exceed what can be safely accommodated within the vehicle with baggage.

  • Child & Booster Seat Policy - UK Law For Private Hire & Taxis

    Sorry I do not provide or store these, for the safety and comfort of all passengers, Keith’s Private Hire follows current UK child‑seat regulations for licensed Private Hire and Taxi vehicles. Due to the hundreds of child seats on the market — each is suited to different ages, sizes and safety requirements — it isn’t possible to guarantee the correct seat for every child. There are also important hygiene and storage considerations, so I’m unable to store personal child seats while you are away if you choose to bring your own. Under UK regulations for Private Hire & Taxis, children may travel without a child seat only when seated in the rear and facing forward: - Aged 3 or over: they must wear an adult seat belt - Under 3: they may travel without a seat belt.
