How Pick-Up Works At Stansted

Stansted pick-up, step by step

Stansted has one terminal and a designated pick-up area outside it. Unlike Heathrow and Gatwick, drivers cannot wait inside the arrivals hall here, so the process is slightly different — and worth knowing before you land.

1
Call your driver once you are through
Stansted operates a single terminal. Collect your bags, clear arrivals, then call the number in your confirmation — your driver is already waiting nearby.
2
Meet at the pick-up area outside
Your driver pulls into the designated pick-up area and meets you there. Stansted does not permit private hire drivers to wait inside arrivals.

Worth Knowing

  • Metered fare climbs while you sit on the M11

  • Agreed at booking and printed on your confirmation
  • Same fare at 6am, at midnight, and on a bank holiday
  • Driver waiting inside arrivals with your name
  • Flight tracked — a two-hour delay costs you nothing
