Landing at Bournemouth after a holiday
Most flights into Bournemouth Airport are holiday returns, and many land late in the evening or in the small hours. The airport is quiet at that time, there is no railway station, and a tired family with suitcases is a long way from Southampton without a car waiting.
Because we track the flight, the driver works to your real landing time rather than the timetable. Bournemouth's terminal is small, so passengers are usually through passport control and baggage reclaim faster than at the big London airports — and the driver is there when you come out.
From landing to your front door
- Your flight number, not the time Book with the flight number. If the flight is early or late, the pickup moves with it at no extra cost.
- Through arrivals Your driver waits in the arrivals area with a name board and helps with the cases to the car.
- The road home About 40 minutes to Southampton via the A338, A31 and M27 — quieter late at night than during the day.
- Straight to the door Anywhere in Southampton, or on to Eastleigh, Totton, the cruise port or further — the fare is fixed when you book.
Bournemouth Airport to the Southampton cruise terminals
Bournemouth Airport is about 30 miles from Southampton's cruise terminals, around 40 minutes by road. The fare to any of the five terminals — City, Horizon, Mayflower, Ocean or QEII — is the same as to a Southampton address: from £75 for an Economy saloon with up to 4 passengers.
There is no railway station at Bournemouth Airport, so a car is the only direct way to the ship with cruise luggage. Book with your flight number and the name of your ship: if the flight is late, the pickup moves with it, and we drop you at the porters at your terminal.
Booking the return trip before you go
