A Market Town at the End of the Tram Line

Ashton-under-Lyne is the biggest of the nine Tameside towns, with one of the largest outdoor markets in the north of England and the Portland Basin where three canals meet. The Metrolink line from Manchester finishes here, and the M60 runs past the western edge.

That motorway is what makes this route quick. Your driver is on it within a few minutes of most Ashton addresses, so there is no crawl across town before the journey properly starts. At just under four hours, it is one of the faster Gatwick runs from Greater Manchester.

We are a fully licensed operator,r and we run long-distance airport taxi work across Tameside every week. It is the same service whether you book an executive taxi for a work trip or a family airport transfer with the child seats already fitted.

The Route from Ashton-under-Lyne to Gatwick Airport

The Altrincham to Gatwick Airport transfer is 223 miles and normally takes three hours and forty-four minutes. Your driver joins the M56 within minutes, picks up the M6 southbound, then follows the M40, M25 and M23 to the airport.

Under four hours is quick for a Greater Manchester pickup, and the reason is position. There is no ring road to work around and no urban crawl before the motorway begins, so the clock starts on a fast road.

We take the M40 near Birmingham rather than staying on the M6, which brings you onto the west side of the M25 where traffic usually moves better. We drop you right outside your terminal, and a break can be added if you want one.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a taxi from Ashton-under-Lyne to Gatwick Airport?

A saloon for up to three people starts at £311. Most families choose the MPV at £359. Groups take the 12-seater at £478 or the 16-seater at £526. The price you see when booking is the price you pay.

How long does the journey take?

About three hours and fifty-nine minutes in normal traffic, joining the M60 at junction 23 and then using the M6, M40, M25 and M23. Being next to the ring road keeps this run under four hours.

Can I fly out and back in the same day?

Yes, and many business travellers do. At under four hours each way, a morning flight out and an evening flight home works without an overnight stay.

Yes. We collect from Droylsden, Audenshaw, Dukinfield, Stalybridge, Mossley, Hyde and Denton at a fixed price. Enter your postcode to see the exact fare.

Should I book early?

Yes, it is much better. Booking ahead holds a car for your time and fixes your price, while last-minute bookings depend on what is free.

Can the price go up later?

No. It is set when you book and stays the same, whatever the traffic does and however long the drive takes.

What if my flight is delayed?

You do not need to do anything. We watch your flight and send the driver later. There is no waiting charge.

Will the driver meet me inside the airport?
