Your Petersham transfer, in full

Everything about the Gatwick to Petersham journey.

Your journey from Gatwick to Petersham

A private hire transfer from Gatwick Airport to Petersham covers 34.3 miles (55.3 km) by road and takes 58–112 minutes door to door, depending on the time of day and traffic. The drop covers the TW10 postcode district in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Your fixed all-in fare is £102.97 for up to 3 passengers — agreed before you travel, with no meter, no surge and no change if the roads are busy.

At 34.3 miles by road this is a longer motorway-and-city route,, and the fixed fare covers the whole of it whether the journey runs to 58 minutes or the full 112.

How long the Petersham drive takes at different times

Traffic, not distance, decides how long the Gatwick to Petersham drive takes. Overnight, between 22:00 and 06:00, the roads are clear and the run takes about 58 minutes. Through the off-peak middle of the day it settles around 72 minutes. The morning peak from 07:00 to 10:00 is the busiest inbound window at roughly 106 minutes, and the evening peak from 16:00 to 19:00 runs about 112 minutes as central London empties out.

The gap between the best and worst case on this route is 54 minutes — an evening-peak run into Petersham takes about 93% longer than the same drive overnight. Most of that variation lands on the M25, which carries the longest single stretch of this route at 15.2 km. Planning works the same way in reverse. Leaving Petersham for a flight out of Gatwick Airport during the morning peak means allowing the full 106 minutes plus check-in time, while an off-peak departure needs closer to 72 minutes and a quiet overnight start nearer 58.

What a Petersham transfer costs

Every Gatwick to Petersham fare is fixed and all-in, quoted VAT-inclusive before you book. Economy seats up to 3 passengers with room for 2 bags at a fixed £102.97, Business seats up to 3 passengers with room for 2 bags at a fixed £125.63, First seats up to 3 passengers with room for 2 bags at a fixed £200.79 and Van seats up to 7 passengers with room for 7 bags at a fixed £143.13.

On the cheapest class that works out at about £3.00 per mile across the 34.3-mile route.

Travelling as a group changes the sum. The Van seats up to 7 passengers with 7 bags for a fixed £143.13 — about £20.45 a head when it is full, and usually less than 7 separate train or coach tickets once luggage and changes are counted.

What's included in your fixed fare

Every Gatwick to Petersham journey is pre-booked and driven by a TfL-licensed chauffeur who meets you inside arrivals with a name board, tracks your flight so an early or delayed landing moves the pick-up automatically, and helps with your luggage. The fare covers the drive itself, the meet-and-greet, the free wait if your flight lands early or late, and the drop at your exact address — there is nothing further to settle with the driver on the day, a traffic-heavy crawl costs exactly the same as a clear overnight run, and the same fixed fare applies wherever in Petersham you are headed. Fares are quoted VAT-inclusive and all-in, so there is never a separate airport, waiting or booking fee to settle on the day. Prices rise with the size and class of vehicle, never with demand or the time you travel: there is no meter running in traffic and no surge multiplier however busy the roads or the calendar, and everyone in the party arrives together at the same door on one fixed fare. Fixed pass-through costs such as Gatwick forecourt drop-off charge (£10.00) are already folded into the quoted fare, not bolted on afterwards. On the Gatwick to Petersham route you can choose from 4 vehicle classes, from the Economy at £102.97 to the First at £200.79, so the fixed fare scales to the party and the occasion rather than to a meter. Because the booking is accepted by a licensed operator before you travel, it is a pre-booked private hire transfer end to end — never a hailed or ranked service.

Petersham on the map

The Gatwick to Petersham drive runs mainly on M25 (15.2 km), M23 (12.6 km) and A244 (6.4 km), with the M25 carrying about 28% of the 55.3 km route — which is why the same journey can be quicker or slower than a similar distance across a different corridor. Gatwick is the third-closest of the 6 London airports to Petersham by road, 34.3 miles (55.3 km) against 23.8 km from the nearest, Heathrow. Closest is not always fastest: a fixed Gatwick fare is quoted on the real road route and the time band you actually travel in, not on the map distance, so Petersham passengers flying from Gatwick pay the same agreed price whichever airport is nearer. Petersham sits within a short drive of Richmond upon Thames (0.9 km), Ham (1.4 km), Richmond (1.7 km) and St Margarets (London) Station (1.8 km), so the same fixed fare covers pick-ups either side of the area boundary. Petersham lies in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, and every pick-up there is dispatched to a licensed operator before your driver is assigned.
