Heathrow has four passenger terminals — 2, 3, 4 and 5 — and which one you need depends on your airline. Give us your flight number when you book and the driver goes to the right terminal. The route runs the M4 to the M25, then the M3 and M27 west, and finishes on the A31 and A338 into Bournemouth.

Fixed fares (from)

Heathrow to Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch

Bournemouth is about 90 miles from Heathrow and around 1 hour 40 minutes by road: the M3 to the M27, west to the edge of the New Forest, then the A31 past Ringwood and the A338 into the town. Most of the drive is motorway; the last part is the A-road stretch where traffic builds up on summer weekends.

Many passengers booked to Bournemouth are actually going to Poole, Christchurch, Sandbanks or the New Forest villages on the way — all at the same kind of fixed fare, quoted for your exact address.

Landing on a summer Saturday

Between late June and early September, the A31 near Ringwood is the slowest part of the journey on weekends, and it can add half an hour. Your fare does not change, but if you are meeting someone at a set time, tell us and we will plan around it.
