TW Kings Cars runs pre-booked airport taxis from West Malling to every London airport, door to door, 24 hours a day. We pick up from anywhere in the area — the High Street and Swan Street, the A228 and Kings Hill Avenue side, Manor Park and the station area, and the lanes out towards East Malling, Offham and Leybourne — and take you straight to your terminal. No meter, no surge pricing: your fare is fixed when you book, and it is the price you pay.
West Malling is a small market town with a Georgian High Street, St Mary's Abbey (Malling Abbey) behind its walls, the Norman St Leonard's Tower, and Manor Park Country Park on its edge. The M20 (J4) and M26 (J2) are about a mile away, which makes its airport runs some of the quickest in this area.
A saloon car from West Malling to Gatwick Airport is a fixed £89 and to Heathrow Airport a fixed £115. We also run fixed fares to London City (£109), Stansted (£129) and Luton (£157) — the full table for every airport and vehicle is below. Gatwick is about 36 miles from West Malling and the drive takes around 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes in normal traffic; Heathrow is about 58 miles and takes around 1 hour 50 minutes to 2 hours 10 minutes depending on the M25. When you book, we agree a pickup time that gets you to the terminal with time to spare.
Coming home, we track your flight. If your plane is delayed, your driver simply adjusts — TW Kings Cars makes no additional charge for flight delays — and will text or call you on arrival and help with your luggage. All our drivers are licensed by the local council and DBS checked.

Travelling as a group? Our 8-seater minibuses run the same fixed fares from West Malling — £142 to Gatwick, £184 to Heathrow, £174 to London City, £206 to Stansted and £251 to Luton — for family holidays, golf trips, wedding parties and group airport runs where two cars would cost more and arrive separately. Everyone travels together, with room for cases, buggies and sports bags. Tell us your passenger numbers and luggage when you book and we will send the right vehicle.
Gatwick and Heathrow are the airports most West Malling passengers use, but we run every London airport at a fixed fare. London City (£109 saloon) is the business traveller's choice — a small Docklands terminal, fast to clear, and handy for Canary Wharf and the City. Stansted (£129 saloon) serves the low-cost European routes; it is a long run round the M25 and up the M11, so we agree a generous pickup time when you book. Luton (£157 saloon) is the same story in the other direction — a fixed fare agreed up front, a driver who knows the M25/M1 pattern, and no meter ticking in traffic. Whichever airport you are flying from, the price you are quoted is the price you pay.
West Malling station is in the town (signed 'West Malling for Kings Hill'), on the line to London Victoria, Maidstone East and Ashford — but no train from West Malling runs to an airport. Gatwick by rail means going into London and out again, or changing at Maidstone; Heathrow means crossing London with cases. A fixed-fare taxi from your door takes the M20/M26 and M23 straight to Gatwick, or the M25 to Heathrow. For a London day trip the train is a good option — and we run station pickups and drop-offs too.
