From Brixton we run to every London airport, cruise port and station, planning around local traffic and tracking your flight whenever the journey starts or ends in the air.
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 Brixton 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.

Brixton, in south London, is a vibrant, culturally rich district known for its market, music and nightlife. Gatwick is a direct run to the south, with the West End close by for business. We collect from any Brixton address and quote a fixed fare before you set off.
By road distance, London City is usually the shortest run from Brixton, though the fastest journey on the day depends on traffic and which motorway corridor you take — a numerically closer airport can still be the slower option if it means crossing London rather than joining a direct route. Here is roughly how each of the six compares, in normal traffic:
Of all the areas we cover, Brixton ranks 20th closest to London City out of 64 by road distance — a genuine relative marker, not just a raw mileage figure.
London City — about 11 miles (25–40 min by road); Brixton lies to the west-south-west of it.
Heathrow — about 19 miles (30–45 min by road); Brixton lies to the east of it.
Gatwick — about 28 miles (45–70 min by road); Brixton lies to the north of it.
Luton — about 35 miles (45–75 min by road); Brixton lies to the south-south-east of it.
Stansted — about 40 miles (50–80 min by road); Brixton lies to the south-south-west of it.
Southend — about 45 miles (55–85 min by road); Brixton lies to the west-south-west of it.
A minicab is different from a black cab in one important legal respect: it cannot be hailed on the street. Every journey has to be booked in advance — by phone, app or website — and both the vehicle and the driver must hold a separate private hire licence. That is exactly how booking with Airportmove works: you agree the price and the pickup time first, and a licensed driver arrives exactly as arranged, never flagged down on a passing road. In Brixton specifically, London City is the closest of the six by road — roughly 11 miles away, with Brixton lying to the west-south-west of it — which is often why local minicab bookings here lean that way, though a fixed-fare car from Brixton reaches every London airport just as reliably.
The busiest times for Brixton are weekday rush hours, when the main approach roads carry commuter traffic alongside airport and local journeys. If you are travelling before 8am or after 5pm on a weekday, it pays to leave a little earlier; evenings, weekends and school holidays tend to move more freely. We plan the timing either way, so the fixed fare and the pickup time both hold.
Your pickup point is confirmed ahead of time, removing any guesswork on the day, and flight tracking on airport journeys means the car adjusts to when you actually land rather than when the schedule says you should. The usual airport steps still apply either side of your drive — check-in and security, or passport control and baggage reclaim — and the included waiting time is there to cover them.
It helps to flag your group size and luggage when you book rather than on the day — a saloon comfortably takes four passengers and two large cases, and an estate, MPV or 8-seater covers anything bigger, from extra suitcases to pushchairs. Demand for this kind of trip tends to rise in school holidays and over summer, so an earlier booking makes it easier to lock in the vehicle you need.
Most Brixton bookings with us start as an airport transfer, but the same fixed-fare minicab and driver cover plenty more of your travel:
A regular commute or the school run, billed to a business or family account.
A wedding, night out or event transfer, planned to your schedule.
A car kept at your disposal with hourly hire.
A connection on to a cruise port or hotel.
Something sent rather than someone carried, with courier delivery.
Step-free travel in one of our wheelchair-accessible vehicles.
