A composed, unhurried transfer from Essex to Gatwick Airport — North Terminal or South Terminal. Your flight is tracked, your vehicle prepared, and your time remains entirely your own.
— No. 01 · Gatwick Airport Transfer
Gatwick is the second busiest airport in the United Kingdom, and the journey from Essex requires navigating around or through London. Done poorly, it is a source of considerable anxiety. Done as we do it — with proper planning, live monitoring, and the composed calm of a service that knows its routes — it is simply the first pleasant interval of your journey.
Travel in Style Essex provides private chauffeur transfers from Essex to Gatwick Airport serving both North Terminal and South Terminal, at the same all-inclusive rate. The route is selected based on live traffic conditions — the M25 west when it flows, the M11 south when it does not. We know both options well and choose without drama.
Your flight is monitored from the moment of booking. Terminal allocations are confirmed in advance based on your airline. On your return, we are present in the arrivals hall as you clear customs — not in a car park waiting for your call.
The vehicle of choice for your Gatwick transfer is the Mercedes-Benz V-Class — our flagship, accommodating up to seven passengers with a cabin composed with care: executive captain seats, climate control, Hermès throws, and refreshments laid out before departure. For those travelling alone or in pairs, the S-Class or E-Class may be preferred.

— No. 02 · Terminals Served
Gatwick's two terminals — North and South — each serve distinct airlines and alliances. Our chauffeur knows both intimately, including the precise kerb positions, set-down points, and quiet approaches that make a departure feel composed.

"I booked as a 60th birthday treat for my husband — Thailand for Christmas and his birthday. I wanted him to arrive in style, and that is exactly what happened. Jamie loaded our bags, gave us a tour of all the facilities, and a gorgeous bottle of bubbly was on ice waiting for us. Chatty but not intrusive. Polite and funny. Very professional."

"Reliable, punctual and friendly service. We were going on a 40th birthday trip and all the little extras certainly made it even more memorable. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. First class service."

— Gatwick · Your Chauffeur
Travel in Style Essex is not a fleet operation. There is one chauffeur: Jamie Gifford, who founded the service in 2019 and has conducted every journey personally since. When you make an enquiry, you speak to Jamie. When you are collected, it is Jamie at the door.
He holds an advanced RoSPA driving qualification, a clean PCO licence, and a DBS certificate. He drives as he attends to everything else — with composure, without hurry, and with the particular care of someone who takes pride in his work.
"The standard I hold myself to is simple: I ask whether I would be comfortable if the people I most respect could see exactly what I was doing and why. The answer is always yes."
