Why people book a car in Rugby

Rugby is unusual in this area: the train to London genuinely beats driving, so we do not pretend otherwise. Where a car earns its place is the airport run, the early start before the first train, and the journey home when the last one has gone.

Rugby to Birmingham Airport

22.6 miles. About 34 minutes if you are leaving at four in the morning, and closer to 41 minutes in afternoon traffic. Those are measured times, not a single average pretending the M6 behaves the same all day, and we quote against the one that applies to your departure.

Heathrow is 90.8 miles from Rugby, about 95 minutes leaving early. Gatwick, Stansted, Luton, Manchester and East Midlands are all regular runs too, as are Southampton and Dover for cruises and ferries.

Flights are monitored. If your inbound lands late the pickup moves with it, and you are not charged for a delay you did not cause.

Around Rugby

Typical Rugby bookings

A 03:45 departure because the first train would not get there in time. A last-train-gone pickup from the station at midnight. An end-of-term run from Rugby School with three trunks and a bike.

Same-day and short-notice bookings are accepted as well as advance ones. Call the office and we will confirm availability for Rugby that day.

Which vehicle for Rugby

Rugby is where the 8-seater earns its keep. School runs at the start and end of term do not fit a saloon or a 6-seat MPV, and neither do four adults flying long haul with a full set of cases.

Saloon, estate, 6-seat MPV, 8-seater, wheelchair accessible vehicle, and 12, 16 or 37 seats for groups.

Can I book a taxi in Rugby for the same day?

Often, yes. Call 0800 061 4661 and we will confirm whether a vehicle is free for Rugby that day. We do not operate a rank, so we cannot promise a car within minutes, but short-notice work is taken whenever there is a car available.

Yes. It is roughly 90.8 miles and about 95 minutes on an early start. One driver the whole way, no changeovers.
