Most airport transfer providers monitor the flight and will give between half an hour to one hour free before charging waiting time. Be sure to check this before booking.

With many people choosing to fly with nothing but hand luggage, especially on many of the budget airlines, it is worth pointing out that Airporttaxi4flights does not build in any extra charges except for all pickups that require a "Meet and Greet". You will be asked to indicate how you wish to be picked up on arrival during the booking process.
Popular meeting points for taxi drivers include the Airport Information Desk which is clearly marked near the arrival gate. Airports can be busy making it quite easy for people to miss each other. It is therefore advisable to give a mobile phone number when pre-booking and to remember to switch the phone on after landing.

If you fancy traveling in style or are business travelers wanting to work on the journey you might like to consider a VIP taxi, commonly a Mercedes or BMW, driven by a uniformed chauffeur who will even carry your luggage into your house. Leather upholstery, Satellite Navigation, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi are the norm when paying for this sort of service. Drivers are also CRB-cleared and discreet so you should have no worries if making confidential business calls from the vehicle.
Luton Taxis, Minicabs – what’s the difference?
Most of us prefer to pre-book our travel to and from the airport but if not, then in theory at least, we would be able to flag down a taxi, whereas minicabs must in law be booked in advance. Both, however, have to meet certain regulations in order to be licensed and drivers of both classes of vehicle should be equally competent and reliable.
The best option is to book a Luton Airport transfer with Airporttaxi4flights and get a double discounted fare (Up to 40%) if your airline is listed for arrival and departure from Luton Airport.
