For departing passengers
Taxi to Heathrow Terminal 4 for your flight
For departures, your driver uses Stratford Road and the left-hand lane at the top of the ramp. The £7 drop-off charge is included in your fare. After unloading your cases, the driver leaves because waiting is not allowed there. Choose your pick-up time when booking, allowing for Heathrow Airport's advice to arrive 2 hours before a UK or European flight and 3 hours before a long-haul flight.
