Pershore to Gatwick Airport is about 136 miles by road, a long run south-east that is booked in advance around the flight and nothing else. The airport's two terminals, North and South, stand in Sussex below London, and the one your flight uses is worth naming in the booking next to the flight number. You give us the date, the flight time, the terminal and your Pershore address; the pick-up is then agreed with the whole road in mind, not just the first ten miles of it.
Journey facts: about 136 miles by road from Pershore to Gatwick Airport (approximate, measured on the road network). Pre-booked only. Wheelchair-accessible vehicle available on request.
East first, out of the Avon valley on the A44 and the A46, up the Fosse Way through the Cotswolds to the M40, then the M25 round the capital's southern side and the M23 down to the airport spur. Three kinds of road in one journey: lanes and A roads, motorway, and the airport's own approach, with the M25 sections at flight times the part that decides the day.
The pick-up is worked back from your airline's bag drop deadline, with a village allowance at this end if the start is Wick, Pinvin, Pensham or Drakes Broughton rather than the town itself. Small minutes at the start protect big ones at the end, which is the entire craft of a run this long.
For the way home, the car is set against your landing, terminal noted, because North and South are separate buildings with separate pick-up points. If the flight lands late, the arrangement holds: the flight number is in the booking, your phone connects you to the driver, and the car waits on the flight rather than the timetable.
The wheelchair-accessible vehicle can be booked for Gatwick journeys from Pershore, and groups travelling together can start from more than one address when the booking says so. Tell us about luggage beyond the ordinary in the notes, and the space question is answered before the day.
The other London run from the town is the Heathrow run from Pershore, the eastern option is the Stansted run from Pershore, and Pershore's airport page covers every airport from the town. The county service behind the routes is on our airport transfers page for the county.
