Stansted transfer from Luton Airport (LTN)

Luton and Stansted are London's two low-cost airports, to the north and north-east, linked by Hertfordshire roads that never touch the city: about 60 km of countryside between Hitchin and Bishop's Stortford. A Zonetransfers driver stands where the Luton arrivals hall opens out, ready to take you to Stansted from €109 per car, fixed when you book.

Driving from Luton to Stansted

Your first 30 minutes at LTN

Everything at Luton happens in a single terminal: after passports and bags you come out into the arrivals hall, where your driver is waiting.

  • Border control: Many passports, EU, US and Australian among them, can use the eGates; under-10s go to a staffed desk.
  • Bags: Suitcases usually arrive within 15 to 25 minutes.
  • Arrivals hall: There is just one arrivals hall at Luton; the driver is there holding your name.
  • 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.

We used Zonetransfers for airport transfers back and forth during a family trip to Madrid. On-time pickups, comfortable vehicles, and very friendly drivers. Will definitely use them again.

We needed to get from Valencia to Barcelona with quite a few bags, so we decided to book a private transfer. The driver arrived on time, helped us with the luggage and we went straight to our hotel in Barcelona. It worked really well for us.

We booked a transfer from Lisbon Airport to Faro as we were staying in the Algarve for a few days. It was a long drive but the car was comfortable and the driver was friendly. We just sat back and enjoyed the trip instead of worrying about trains and changing buses.
