Agreed before you travel, not after
One price for the whole run, door to door. Stansted Airport parking fees, flight tracking and 30 minutes of waiting after landing are already inside it.
Standard saloon
1–4 passengers
2 large suitcases + 2 hand luggage
Estate car
1–4 passengers
2–4 large suitcases + 2 hand luggage
6-seat MPV
1–6 passengers
Up to 6 hand luggage, or 4 passengers with 4 large suitcases plus small bags

A £25 night surcharge applies to journeys with a scheduled pickup time between 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM, which is worth checking against an early Stansted departure.
Stansted is a journey worth planning
Of all the airports on our fare list, Stansted is the furthest from Dorset. That is not a reason to avoid it — plenty of flights only go from there — but it is the run where a pre-booked, fixed-price journey makes the most difference.
The usual time
A normal run takes about two and a half hours, though how long any journey takes depends on the traffic on the day.
No changes
The same car and the same driver from your front door to the terminal, with your luggage staying with you the whole way.
Four things worth sorting early
Book it in good time
The earlier the journey is in the diary, the easier it is to hold the pickup time you want — and Stansted departures often mean an early one.
Count the cases, not just the seats
On a run this length the boot matters as much as the seat count. Tell us how many large cases you are carrying and we will confirm which vehicle fits.
Send the flight number
With the flight number we can follow the arrival time and move the collection to match it, at no extra charge.
Sort the return at the same time
Return legs from Stansted into Dorset are booked the same way and at the same fixed fare. Arranging both together means one conversation instead of two.
Our fleet & luggage capacity
On a run this length the vehicle matters. Tell us the passenger count and the number of cases and we will put you in the right one.
Standard Saloon
Passengers: 1–4
Luggage: 2 large suitcases + 2 hand luggage
Right for a couple or a small party travelling light.
Estate Car
Passengers: 1–4
Luggage: 2–4 large suitcases + 2 hand luggage
Same seats, a much bigger boot — the usual pick for a fortnight away.
Small MPV
Passengers: 1–6
Luggage: Up to 6 pieces of hand luggage, or 4 passengers with 4 large suitcases plus small bags
For larger groups, or when the cases outnumber the passengers.
Departures and return collection
Travelling out
A pre-booked collection at an agreed time, worked back from your flight and your check-in. The car comes to your address and goes directly to the terminal — no changes of vehicle and no other passengers to collect on the way.
Fixed fare confirmed before you travel · vehicle chosen for the luggage · pickup time agreed at booking · direct run to the terminal
Coming home
Send the flight number with the booking and we follow the arrival time. If the flight lands early or runs late, the collection moves with it and there is no charge for the change.
Meet & Greet on arrival, with meeting instructions confirmed at booking · 30 minutes of free waiting after landing, subject to the booking terms · Stansted parking fees inside the fare · help with the cases
Door to door, in one go
A Stansted journey from Dorset can be done in several ways. What a pre-booked car gives you is a single vehicle for the whole distance: no changes, no platforms, no moving luggage between services, and no working out connections at either end.
We are not going to tell you it is quicker or cheaper than every alternative, because that depends on your party size, your luggage and the day you travel. What we can say is what it involves, so you can weigh it up yourself.
What the journey involves
Collection from your own address, at a time agreed in advance.
Your luggage loaded once and staying with the party the whole way.
The same driver from Dorset to the terminal.
A vehicle chosen around the number of passengers and cases.
A fare that does not change if the road is slow.

We used Elite Cabs recently for booking a trip to Heathrow from Wimborne with a return later. On both occasions John was prompt and contacted us to confirm our bookings. He loaded our luggage for us and his vehicle was clean and comfortable. His driving was excellent and we were able to relax. I have no reservations in recommending him to others.We will certainly use him again.Posted on Google![]()

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you track delayed flights?
Yes. We monitor live flight arrival times, so if your flight is delayed or arrives early, your driver’s pickup time will be adjusted automatically at no extra cost.
Where do I meet my driver at the airport?
We provide a professional meet-and-greet service. Your exact meeting point and instructions are confirmed as part of your booking, and your driver will help with your luggage.
How much is a taxi from Dorset to Stansted?
£255 in a standard saloon, £265 in an estate and £295 in a 6-seat MPV, from Wimborne, Poole, Ferndown, Bournemouth, Christchurch or Verwood. For Blandford Forum and North Dorset, call and we will quote you.
Is Stansted parking included in the fare?
Yes. Stansted parking fees sit inside the fare, along with live flight tracking and 30 minutes of free waiting after you land.
Can you collect us from Stansted on the way back?
Yes — return legs from Stansted back to Dorset are booked the same way and at the same fixed price. Give us the flight number and we will track the arrival.
Do you charge extra for very early Stansted departures?
Only where the scheduled pickup time is between 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM, when a £25 night surcharge applies. Stansted departures often mean leaving Dorset in the small hours, so it is worth checking your pickup time against that window when you book.
How much waiting time is included after we land?
Thirty minutes of free waiting after the flight lands, subject to the booking terms. Because the arrival time is tracked from the flight number, that half hour starts when you actually land rather than when you were scheduled to.
Can I book a larger vehicle just for the luggage?
Yes. The vehicle is chosen around whichever is the bigger constraint — the number of passengers or the number of cases. Four people with four large suitcases are usually better off in the estate or the MPV, and the fare for that vehicle is the one quoted up front.
Which Dorset areas do you collect from?
The £255, £265 and £295 fares are from Wimborne, Poole, Ferndown, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Verwood. Blandford Forum, North Dorset and anywhere else nearby — call and we will quote the journey properly rather than guess at it.
Planning a Stansted Airport Transfer?
Send us the flight and the pickup address and we will come back with the fixed fare and a pickup time worked back from your departure. Returns from Stansted into Dorset are booked the same way.
