Sunbury Taxi & Airport Transfers

Sunbury-on-Thames sits on the river just south of Kempton Park, one of the closest Surrey towns to Heathrow. Junction 1 of the M3 at Sunbury Cross is in the town, so Terminal 4 is often ten minutes away and Terminals 2, 3 and 5 a quarter of an hour — which is why so many airline crews and frequent flyers live here and why we are on the road to Heathrow from Sunbury every hour of the day.

RushXO is a TfL-licensed private hire operator providing fixed-price, no-surge taxis and executive cars across Sunbury-on-Thames and the rest of south-west London and Surrey. Every journey is quoted in full before you travel — airport transfers, station runs, cruise and ferry ports, business travel and days out — with professional drivers, flight tracking and 24-hour availability, 365 days a year.

Airport transfers from Sunbury

We run to and from every London airport from Sunbury around the clock. Distances and typical door-to-door times are shown below; your fixed fare is confirmed at booking and does not change if traffic is slow.

*Typical ranges for guidance only — actual journey time depends on the time of day, roadworks and weather. When you book we suggest a pickup time that gives you sensible margin for check-in. Meet-and-greet on airport pickups includes flight tracking, so if your flight is late your driver simply meets the actual landing time.

• Heathrow transfers in 10–20 minutes from TW16
• Gatwick journeys via the M3 and M25
• Kempton Park race day transfers

Local knowledge: getting around Sunbury

Sunbury Cross is the meeting point of the M3, A316 and A308 — everything runs through it, and it queues in the peaks. For Heathrow our drivers use the A316 and A312 for Terminal 4, or the M3 and M25 to junction 14 for the other terminals. Gatwick is the M3 and M25 anticlockwise to the M23. Lower Sunbury by the river and Thames Street is the prettiest part and the trickiest for parking, so we agree pickup points; Kempton Park race days bring heavy traffic on the A308.

Main roads

• M3 junction 1
• A308 Staines Road
• A316 Sunbury Cross
• M25 junction 12 via M3

Rail and public transport

Sunbury and Upper Halliford have South Western Railway trains on the Shepperton branch to Waterloo in around 45 minutes; Kempton Park station opens on race days. Trains are great for a quick trip into town, but for early flights, late arrivals, luggage, children or a group travelling together, a pre-booked fixed-price car from your door in Sunbury is usually quicker, simpler and — for two or more people — often no more expensive.
