Luton Airport has one passenger terminal, and all arrivals come out on the ground floor. The driver waits there with your name and walks with you to the car.
| Stage | Details |
|---|---|
| Border control | Many passports, EU, US and Australian among them, can use the eGates; under-10s go to a staffed desk. |
| Bags | No hold luggage? You skip this step entirely. |
| Arrivals hall | One terminal, one exit: you cannot miss the driver and your name sign. |
| To the car | The car is parked a short walk from the terminal doors. |
If the plane is delayed past midnight, the driver adjusts and still waits up to 60 minutes free of charge.
If you cannot see your name, phone the line on your voucher, which is staffed around the clock, or use WhatsApp +34 654 381 547.

Luton is a handy airport for Oxford because the drive goes across country rather than through London. Students arriving with a term's worth of luggage and visiting academics both use it.

The university heart; some streets have restricted access.
Northern districts with restaurants and guesthouses.
To the east, with hotels, hospitals and Oxford Brookes.
Pub hidden down narrow lanes.
Meadow by the Thames with grazing horses.
The Christ Church staircase and the Bodleian cloisters.
Historic café on the High Street.
Planning several stops? A chauffeur by the hour around London and the Home Counties keeps the same driver all day.
The Aylesbury road is shorter in kilometres; the M40 is quicker at rush hour. The driver chooses according to the traffic at the time, and the price stays the same.
The driver takes the A41 to Aylesbury and continues on the A418 via Thame, or uses the M25 and M40 if the A-roads are slow; in about 1 h 10 min you are at your hotel, in Jericho or at your college gate.
