Hayes, in west London, is a busy district in Hillingdon with strong Elizabeth line connections at Hayes & Harlington. Heathrow is just minutes away, so it is one of our quickest airport runs. We quote a fixed fare upfront and track your flight on every return journey.
By road distance, Heathrow is usually the shortest run from Hayes, 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, Hayes ranks 2nd closest to Heathrow out of 64 by road distance — a genuine relative marker, not just a raw mileage figure.
Heathrow — about 4 miles (15–25 min by road); Hayes lies to the north-north-east of it.
London City — about 26 miles (40–65 min by road); Hayes lies to the west of it.
Gatwick — about 30 miles (40–65 min by road); Hayes lies to the north-north-west of it.
Luton — about 30 miles (40–60 min by road); Hayes lies to the south of it.
Stansted — about 45 miles (60–95 min by road); Hayes lies to the south-west of it.
Southend — about 60 miles (75–115 min by road); Hayes lies to the west of it.
Unlike a black cab, a minicab cannot legally pick up a passenger who simply flags it down — every trip has to be arranged beforehand, with the driver and the car both carrying their own private hire licence. Booking with Airportmove follows that rule to the letter: the fare and the time are fixed before you travel, and a licensed driver turns up at the agreed moment rather than being hailed in passing. In Hayes specifically, Heathrow is the closest of the six by road — roughly 4 miles away, with Hayes lying to the north-north-east of it — which is often why local minicab bookings here lean that way, though a fixed-fare car from Hayes reaches every London airport just as reliably.
Traffic around Hayes builds fastest on weekday mornings and early evenings, when commuters share the main approach roads with airport and local traffic. A journey before 8am or after 5pm on a weekday is when it is worth allowing extra time; outside those windows, and at weekends, the roads are usually calmer. Either way, our drivers build a buffer into every pickup so a slow patch of traffic does not turn into a rushed one.
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 Hayes bookings with us start as an airport transfer, but the same fixed-fare minicab and driver cover plenty more of your travel:

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.
