Kensington (W8) to Stansted Airport
Pre-book a private-hire car from your Kensington address. Compare vehicles for your party and luggage, and get a journey-specific quote from our 24-hour office.
YOUR QUOTE
Your journey, your quote
The quote reflects your pickup address, date and time, vehicle and journey requirements. Tell us about any extra stops or a return when you enquire.
Stansted Express Set Down charges are airport-side costs, not a KB Cars fare. Ask the office to confirm the total and any agreed airport charges with your quote.
BEFORE YOU TRAVEL
Kensington to Stansted: plan your departure
Plan the pickup around your flight and the time you need to reach the airport.
Share the flight
Share your flight number and the time you need to reach Stansted for check-in. Use your airline’s recommended airport arrival guidance when planning the pickup, especially for an early flight. KB Cars is registered with the ICO. Our Privacy Notice explains how we handle your booking information.
Describe the party
Tell us how many people are travelling and describe your bags, pushchairs and unusual items. The vehicle needs to suit the combined party and luggage, not just the seat count.
Use the airport drop-off
Your destination is Stansted Airport, not Stansted Mountfitchet. The airport’s Express Set Down is for drop-offs only; vehicles must not be left unattended there.
Need help with your luggage? Our office can arrange guidance to the car and loading of ordinary bags or a folding wheelchair without charge. Tell us about the help you need so we can arrange a suitable driver. If you need an escort inside a building, we can discuss the arrangement and any cost.

For early departures, check services for your travel date and allow for the local leg to your chosen interchange.
- Car: booked Kensington address to Stansted Airport.
- Airport rail via Tottenham Hale: Victoria line connection, then Stansted Express.

GOOD TO KNOW
Kensington to Stansted transfer FAQs
Practical answers for your departure.
Is the pickup from my address?
Yes. Your pre-booked private-hire journey starts at the address you give us, rather than at a station. Include the postcode, entrance and any additional stops.
What luggage details should I provide?
Give us the passenger count and the number and sizes of your suitcases and cabin bags, plus any pushchair, folding wheelchair or unusual item. The office can help choose a vehicle for the complete party and load together.
When is my transfer confirmed?
Your booking is confirmed when KB Cars sends confirmation by SMS and/or email. An enquiry, quote or payment alone does not confirm a car.
