Advice appreciated re the best way to get to Heathrow early on a Saturday morning, before the trains start. Assuming uber/ taxi?
Many thanks
Taxi to Heathrow?


Welcome to the forum!
Last time I had an early flight I stayed over in Heathrow but we got some sort of deal - looking at it now it isnt that cheap.
When my sister stayed over she uber’d it and it was reasonable but that was a while back…

£45 with Forest Hill Cars when I took one last month.

Thank you - yes thinking about Uber

For Heathrow I’d do a pre book. All you need is lack of availability and a surge and then it’s over £100 as my sister unfortunately found out.

We used Green Tomato cars at £60 a few yrs ago.

You could try Zipcar Flex. You have to drop it at Heathrow Terminal 5, but at that time of day will cost you about £12-15.

My colleague has used this countless time and loves it.
I used to use FH cars when I flew from LHR a lot - they were well priced and very reliable, which is what I wanted in the early morning. I had Uber drivers cancel a few times, which was just unnecessary stress when I had to get to the airport.

Thank you
