Economy Transfer Service
The budget-friendly Economy Transfer Service is available from London Heathrow Airport on Sundays. This includes a meet & greet service by a member of school staff or a driver inside the terminal building. On departure, our staff member or driver also takes students to the check-in desk.
The Economy Transfer Service is only available on Sundays for flights:

  • Arriving between 9am and 6pm
  • Departing between 10am and 7pm

Waiting times: We plan for our staff member or driver to meet arriving students approximately 45 minutes after their flight arrives (or later if there are delays through arrivals). While we operate multiple shuttle buses and minibuses on each arrival and departure day, using this service means that students may have to wait up to three hours at the airport for their coach or minibus to depart.

Eurostar shuttles

We are also offering two Economy shuttles on Sundays from/to St Pancras International Station as follows:

  • Arrival shuttles leave at 5pm, with a staff member available at the station for meet & greet from 3.30pm
  • Departure shuttles drop off students in time for the 4.31pm train to Paris or 5.04pm train to Brussels

Premium Transfer Service
Our Premium Transfer Service is available from all London airports, as well as Bristol Airport and London St Pancras International Station. This option also includes a meet & greet service by a member of school staff or a driver inside the terminal building. On departure, our staff member or driver also takes students to the check-in desk. Students travelling together can share the same Private Transfer Service.
Waiting times: We plan for our staff member or driver to meet arriving students approximately 45 minutes after their flight arrives (or later if there are delays through arrivals). Premium Transfers leave the airport or station immediately after collecting the student.

Unaccompanied minors
We are happy to assist with the arrival and departure of unaccompanied children. It is the responsibility of the family to ensure that this service is available and booked with the airline, and that all necessary paperwork is handed over to us.
