Private Heathrow Airport to Southampton Cruise Port Transfer
About This Transfer
Landing after a long-haul flight and then having to find a shared shuttle to the coast is the last thing most cruise passengers want. Your driver monitors your flight and waits at arrivals, ready to take you directly to your Southampton cruise terminal.
It's a straightforward run down the M3, with your pickup time adjusted to your actual landing time rather than a fixed slot — useful if your flight is early, late, or delayed.
Why Go Private
- Flight monitored — pickup adjusts to your actual landing time
- Meet at arrivals with a name board, straight to your vehicle
- Direct drop-off at the correct terminal for your cruise line
- No waiting for a shared shuttle to fill up
