Stansted operates a single passenger terminal, so there is no terminal to identify when you book and the meeting building is simpler than at a multi-terminal airport. Enter your flight number at booking: the driver follows your actual landing time rather than the published schedule, so a delayed flight moves the pickup with it. Allow for passport control and baggage reclaim before you expect to meet — the scheduled landing time is not the moment a travelling party is ready to leave arrivals. You meet at the agreed arrivals meeting point given in your confirmation, and pickups run at any hour, which matters here because a large share of Stansted flights land outside conventional daytime hours.
Stansted sits north-east of the capital, so this is a materially longer airport approach than a short cross-city run, and the last stretch into London is where congestion tells most. The road distance and indicative duration above are calculated by the live route service rather than fixed in this text. The transfer is booked against the address you enter, not against "London": a Westminster hotel, a Soho apartment, an office near the City or any other confirmed address is treated as the real destination. Add the full address with any entrance or reception note, so the driver reaches the right door rather than a district.
Use the live vehicle table rather than assuming every category carries the same luggage. Saloon, estate, executive saloon, MPV, eight-seat minibus and executive people carrier options each show their current price alongside their passenger and luggage limits. Check both limits rather than the seat count — the executive categories deliberately carry fewer bags than their seats suggest. A saloon or estate suits one or two travellers with cabin bags or a case each; an MPV or eight-seat minibus keeps a family, colleagues or a larger party together with hold luggage in one vehicle. Choose the smallest option that safely fits both the people and the cases, and request a child seat during booking if you need one — availability and any charge are shown before it is added.
Rail and coach are genuine alternatives on this corridor. The Stansted Express connects Stansted Airport with London Liverpool Street, calling at Tottenham Hale; National Express coaches depart from outside the terminal and run across a number of routes covering different parts of London. Both are station- or stop-based, so your journey begins and ends wherever the nearest one happens to be, and you carry your own bags through it. A private transfer is booked to the address itself and covers the whole distance in one vehicle. Which suits you depends on how close your Central London address is to Liverpool Street or to a relevant coach stop, how much luggage you have, and whether you are travelling alone or with children or a group. Neither is the right answer for every traveller.
The booking form on this page is already set to this route. Confirm the date, pickup time and party details, and the price for the category you select is shown before you confirm. Cancellation and refund eligibility follow the conditions displayed for the selected service and recorded in your confirmation; contact support promptly if your flight or pickup plan changes. The opposite direction, from a Central London address to Stansted departures, is bookable on its own route page with the same vehicle choice and live pricing.
