EsmeOz Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I also always use Mason&Green for airport trips. Safe, comfortable, friendly and punctual, as well as being reasonably priced. Good knowledge of the roads too; Heathrow traffic was awful last time I used M&G but got there on time by using a different route.

j9duff Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Used Mason & Green for the first time in June for a Gatwick Airport drop off and pick up thanks to recommendations on this thread.Internet booking and subsequent email confirmation was easy. Early morning pick up (330am) driver turned up 15 minutes early. Child seats are provided free of charge and were already fitted.Cars were clean and modern and drivers were polite and knowledgeable. The driver on the return leg even put some nursery rhymes on for our toddler who was getting grouchy after too long sitting down.I'll def be using them again.

mr smith Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I'm currently at Heathrow (not Gatwick, but there doesn't seem to be a suitable thread...) with my wife and 20 month old son. We're waiting for Airport Direct. This is worrying as AD were 40 minutes late picking us up on the way here last week, and, what's far worse, they lied to us several times about the driver's location. We are really disappointed as we have been using this company for many years without incident. In January however they cancelled one of the two cars we ordered, assuming it was a duplicate booking, and without bothering to check! I wonder if AD are under new management. Certainly their previous high standards have slipped badly. Thanks to those people who have made recommendations on this thread. Needless to say, we shall not be using Airport Direct again!

Sazzle30 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Panther card are excellent - used them for trips to heathrow and gatwick, always punctual. My OH uses them to get him to the airport when he's on business trips Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/58576-taxi-from-ed-to-gatwick/#findComment-885948 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimH Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I really like Panther Cars. Never a problem and now they have my details it makes booking even easier.

Ellie78 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Another vote for mason and green.... Used twice for seriously early pick ups.

MrBen Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I hate to say it (as its not a local business) but Uber works very well getting to and from all London airports now. No pre booking but each time I land there's been one at pick up area in under 5 mins. Yesterday's fare from SE22 to Heathrow T5 was just 42 quid...and it was a new hybrid limo!

elloriac Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Another Mason & Green vote - prompt, polite, very clean cars Have used for very early pick ups and they have always been on time Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/58576-taxi-from-ed-to-gatwick/#findComment-886577 Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidq100 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Another member of the Mason & Green fan club. Reasonably priced (same as Uber to airports), always on time, always polite. Uber is great for impromptu trips in and out of town, but Uber roulette at 5am for 7am flight from Heathrow is no fun at all.

mybaby178 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 thank you for all those that recommended Mason and Green we used them to get to Gatwick and it was ?40.00, the driver was very polite and arrived to pick us up 15 minutes early Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/58576-taxi-from-ed-to-gatwick/#findComment-886662 Share on other sites More sharing options...
