Totals count every traveller at the fare shown; children often travel cheaper or free.

When not to book us: The train has one real strength here: Harwich International station is right beside the ferry terminal, so a foot passenger walks off the boat and onto a platform. After that it struggles. Greater Anglia shows no direct service to Stansted, with 1 to 4 changes, an average of 2 hours 38 minutes, and an Off-Peak Single of £48.30 per adult, against a free-flow drive of about 69 minutes over 51 miles. Two adults on the train pay £96.60 before anyone has carried a case through a change. There is no coach either: Stansted lists none to Harwich. Timing matters too. Stena's evening sailing leaves Harwich at 23.00, and the last weekday train from Stansted goes at 21:28, so an evening landing rarely connects by rail. A single traveller on an Off-Peak ticket with time to spare can make the train work. A couple, a family, or anyone heading for the 23.00 sailing after an evening landing will usually find one car fare both quicker and cheaper.

Each leg is quoted separately and a different operator can win each, so this price can differ from the Harwich to Stansted Airport price at the top of this page.

To book this direction, set Stansted Airport as your pick-up in the form at the top of this page.

On this leg the fixed price also includes:

Where you meet your driver

  1. Book to Harwich International Port at Parkeston Quay, CO12 4SR, if you are sailing, or to the full address if you are going into Harwich or Dovercourt. Parkeston Quay sits west of the old town, so the two are not the same drop-off.
  2. Your driver's mobile number reaches you in the supplier details email, sent separately from your booking confirmation. Save it before you travel.
  3. We track the flight at no charge, so a late arrival moves your pick-up instead of cancelling it. The free waiting in your fare starts at landing, as set out above.
  4. You do not need the taxi desk in the terminal. Stansted's on-airport provider, Street Cars Taxis, has a reservation desk in the international arrival concourse; your car is booked already, with express pick-up at the designated point. A name board in arrivals is meet and greet, a paid extra.

Contact your driver as soon as you land, their number is in your supplier details email.

Arrivals-hall meet and greet with a name board is available as a paid extra at checkout.

Can you collect us from the Stena Line ferry?

How long is the crossing to the Hook of Holland?

Stena Line gives a crossing time from 6 hours 30 minutes, with day and overnight sailings.

What if our flight is delayed?

The flight is tracked, so the driver moves to the real landing time and your free waiting starts then, as described above.

Do you go to Dovercourt, Manningtree and Clacton?

Yes. Each is priced to its own address, so put the postcode in the form for that journey.

Is it one price for the whole party?

Yes. The fare is for the car, not per seat, which is why it beats a rail ticket each once two or more of you travel.

Can I cancel?

Yes, in full, up to 24 hours before pick-up. After that the fare is charged. Changes go through the link in your confirmation email, on the same 24 hours.
