Whether it is a one-off booking or travel you arrange regularly, Hourly Hire with Airportmove means a fixed price agreed in advance, a licensed driver and a vehicle matched to your journey — booked online or by phone in a couple of minutes.
Airportmove offers hourly and as-directed hire, so you keep a car and driver for as long as you need across London. It suits days with multiple stops — meetings, shopping, sightseeing or events — where booking separate journeys would be a hassle. You pay a clear hourly rate agreed before you set off.
Whether it is a one-off booking or travel you arrange regularly, Hourly Hire with Airportmove means a fixed price agreed in advance, a licensed driver and a vehicle matched to your journey — booked online or by phone in a couple of minutes.
Some days do not fit a single A-to-B journey. With hourly hire, your driver stays with you, waits while you are in a meeting or a shop, and takes you on to the next stop. There is no need to rebook or wait for another car, and no meter ticking unpredictably — just a set rate per hour and a driver who knows the city.
Booking takes about two minutes and your fare is fixed from the start. Here is how a journey works, step by step.
Enter your pickup and drop-off for your Hourly Hire journey on our booking page, or call us. You get an instant, fixed price — no meters and no surge pricing.
Choose a saloon, estate, MPV or 8-seater, add child seats or meet and greet, and confirm in under a minute. We send your driver's name, number and car before pickup.
On airport journeys we track your flight by number and adjust the pickup to your real landing time. Your driver can wait in arrivals with a name board and help with your luggage.
Your driver takes you directly to your destination and you pay online, by card in the car, or on account — always at the fixed fare you were quoted.
One fixed fare, quoted before you book, covers the whole journey. Here is what comes as standard.
No need to rebook between stops.
No meters or unpredictable charges.
Account billing available for regular use.
Flexible, as-directed travel for the days that do not fit a single journey.
Same car and driver for your booked hours.
Waiting time included between stops.

You book a car and driver for a set number of hours. The driver stays with you, waits between stops and takes you wherever you direct within the booked time, for a fixed hourly rate.
Hourly hire is usually booked from a minimum number of hours. Tell us your plans and we will confirm the minimum and a fixed hourly rate when you book.
It suits any day with several stops — back-to-back meetings, shopping trips, sightseeing, viewings or events — where keeping one driver is easier than booking separate journeys.
Yes. Waiting time is included throughout your booked hours, so the driver waits while you are in a meeting, shop or appointment and is ready when you return.

You can choose a standard car for everyday use or an executive vehicle for business and client days, plus larger vehicles for groups. Tell us your needs when booking.

You pay a fixed rate per hour agreed before you start, covering the vehicle, driver and waiting time. Fuel and standard mileage within London are included; let us know if you plan to travel further.
Yes. Hourly and as-directed hire can be billed to a corporate account, so business days roll up onto your monthly invoice with everything else.
