KB CARS · AIRPORT TRANSFER

Paddington / Bayswater (W2) to Heathrow transfers Pre-book your home pickup.

Travel from your W2 address to your Heathrow terminal. Get a quote for your journey, including the airport's terminal drop-off charge, and choose a vehicle for your party and luggage.

YOUR FARE

Your Heathrow departure quote

Your quote is based on the pickup address, date and time, terminal, vehicle and your journey requirements. Tell us about your passengers and luggage so we can help arrange a suitable car.

Heathrow's own terminal drop-off charge is included in the quoted fare at the airport's current rate, rather than added separately afterwards.

PLAN THE DEPARTURE

Plan your W2 home departure

Arrange your pickup to reach the right Heathrow terminal in good time for your flight.

Give the full pickup address

Give the complete W2 pickup address and the entrance or access details needed to identify it. A station address is a separate starting point from your home.

Work back from flight time

Share your airline, flight number and departure time so your pickup can be planned around your airport arrival target. Heathrow recommends arriving three hours before an international flight or two hours before a domestic or Europe flight; follow your airline's requirements. KB Cars is registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). Our Privacy Notice explains how we handle your booking information.

Choose the correct terminal

Include the terminal shown for your individual flight. Heathrow's passenger terminals are 2, 3, 4 and 5, with different approaches.

Give your actual starting point Paddington, Bayswater and Queensway are distinct starting points. Tell us where you want the car to collect you; a station used for a public-transport comparison is not the default home pickup.

COMPARE PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Travelling via Paddington station

London Paddington Rail Station is on Praed Street, W2 1HQ. Heathrow Express and the Elizabeth line are different options to consider from Paddington when comparing your journey.

From Bayswater or Queensway, allow for your own walk or interchange to Paddington and for carrying your bags. A station-to-airport journey is not the whole journey from your home.

GOOD TO KNOW

Paddington / Bayswater to Heathrow: questions answered

Vehicle, booking and departure details for your journey.

Which car should I book for several suitcases?

Choose for passengers and bags together. An estate offers a different luggage arrangement from a saloon; an MPV adds passenger seats, but using those seats can reduce luggage space. Tell the office the number and sizes of large cases and cabin bags, as well as any pushchairs or unusual items, so it can confirm a suitable arrangement.

Can I request a child seat for the airport journey?

Yes. You can bring your own suitable seat or ask KB to arrange one in advance, subject to availability and suitability. Give the office your child's age and relevant height, weight and seat needs; include the seat and any pushchair in the space needed, and agree the arrangement before travel.

What if I need to cancel my transfer?

Cancellation is free before your driver is dispatched. After dispatch a charge applies, up to the full fare once the driver has arrived. Contact the office as soon as your plans change.

Which terminal should I put on the booking?

Use the terminal shown for your individual flight by your airline. Heathrow passenger flights use Terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5; your return flight may use a different terminal.

Is pickup from my home or a station?

Your transfer starts at the address you book, whether that is your home or another agreed location. Stations mentioned in public-transport comparisons are alternatives, not the default private-hire pickup point.

Can I arrange help with bags or getting to the car?

Yes. Tell the office what help you need so it can arrange a suitable driver. Guidance to the car and loading ordinary bags or a folding wheelchair can be arranged without charge; an escort inside a building is a separate arrangement, with any cost agreed for the task.

How do I arrange and confirm my transfer?

Request a quote online or call our 24-hour office on 020 8870 8888; no app installation is needed. An enquiry, quote or payment alone is not a confirmed booking. KB confirms a booking by SMS and/or email.
