Cambridge to Stansted Taxi Fares

A taxi from Cambridge to Stansted Airport starts from £80 in our Comfort class. That’s the complete price for a one-way journey from a Cambridge address to the terminal, covering the drive, any tolls and Stansted’s drop-off charge. There’s no meter, so traffic doesn’t change what you pay.

Two things affect the price: where we pick you up and which vehicle you choose. Cambourne to Stansted starts from £95 and Royston from £100. We also cover the towns and villages around Cambridge — see the areas we cover, or enter your address at booking and you’ll see the price before you pay.

Estate and Executive vehicles cost more than Comfort, and the exact price appears when you select a vehicle.

Stansted is the closest major airport to Cambridge and our lowest route fare. If you’re choosing between airports, it’s our shortest route from Cambridge, and our lowest fare. Luton is the next nearest, from £95 — see our Cambridge to Luton taxi page.

Return journeys from Stansted to Cambridge are quoted at booking, and the quote includes the airport’s pick-up charge and parking.

How Long Does the Journey Take?

The drive covers about 30 miles and takes roughly 40 minutes in normal traffic, mainly along the M11. Weekday mornings and late afternoons are slower, so the same journey can take noticeably longer at those times.

That’s why we set your pickup time from your flight time, your address and the time you’re travelling, then confirm it with you in advance. If you’d rather reach the airport earlier than we suggest, tell us and we’ll plan around that.

Dropping You Off at Stansted

Your driver takes you to the Express Set Down area outside Departures. It’s barrier-free, with number-plate cameras, and the charge is already included in your fare.

It’s built for a quick stop: the car pulls in, and you walk straight into the terminal. Stansted also offers a free drop-off at its Mid Stay car park, but that’s for people driving themselves. Our fare is priced for the Express Set Down and stays the same if you ask to be dropped elsewhere.

Arriving at Stansted: How Your Pickup Works

For a Stansted to Cambridge pickup we work from your flight number. Stansted has drivers wait away from the terminal forecourt, so the pickup works a little differently from a taxi rank. Here’s how it works:

  1. We track your flight. If it lands early or late, your driver’s timing adjusts to match, at no extra cost.
  2. Your driver waits nearby. Stansted has drivers wait away from the terminal forecourt, so your driver holds close by and comes to the meeting point once you’re ready.
  3. Your driver calls or texts you shortly after you land and confirms exactly where to meet.
  4. Reply once you have your luggage and are heading out. Allow a few minutes for your driver to reach the meeting point.
  5. Walk out through the main terminal doors to the pick-up area and meet your driver at the point they confirmed.
  6. The airport’s pick-up charge and parking are included in your fare.

Current directions are on the airport’s own pick-up and drop-off page.

Meet and Greet Inside the Terminal

If you’d rather be met inside the terminal than at the pick-up area, we can arrange that on request. Your driver parks in a Short Stay car park and meets you inside.

It costs more than a standard pickup, because of the parking and the walk into the terminal. The price is quoted at booking, and it needs to be arranged in advance. Our meet and greet page explains how the service works.

Vehicles and Luggage

All three classes carry up to four passengers. What changes is luggage space and the standard of vehicle.

4 passengers, 2 large suitcases and 2 pieces of hand luggage. From £80 on this route. Suits solo travellers, couples and small groups with standard luggage.

What Your Fare Includes

Nothing is added for traffic, and nothing is added for a delayed flight.

When something would be added

Booking, Payment and Cancellation

Wasn’t sure what to expect but honestly couldn’t fault the service. Driver arrived early, car was spotless, and the ride felt super smooth. Got dropped right at the terminal without any issues. Easy five stars from me.
