BOOKING DETAILS
What to confirm before booking Southampton to Stansted
These details are not admin noise. They determine vehicle fit, pickup timing, luggage space, and whether the route can stay on a clear fixed fare.
Luggage capacity
Share large suitcases, cabin bags, pushchairs, boxes, wheelchairs, golf bags, or unusual items. Photos help when the luggage is bulky or hard to describe.
Child seats
Tell us each child age and height when requesting child seats or boosters. Seat layout affects passenger comfort and boot space, so child-seat and luggage details should be checked together.
Flight and timing
For airport trips, provide flight number, terminal, arrival or check-in time, and the pickup buffer you want. Early departures and long arrivals should be planned before travel day.
Fixed fare and return leg
Published fares are starting points for standard setups. Exact addresses, vehicle size, luggage, and special arrangements are confirmed before payment. Return legs receive 10% off.
