Sound familiar?
Have you been let down by an airport taxi before?
An app quotes one price, then the fare jumps once you're already in the car. Or the app says the driver is "2 minutes away" for twenty minutes while you stand there with your bags. Or there's a name board somewhere in a crowd of forty other name boards, and yours isn't one of them. Then your flight lands late and somehow that becomes your problem too, an extra charge for time you didn't choose to spend.
None of that is really your fault, you booked something and trusted it to work. Kings was built around fixing the specific things that go wrong at Heathrow, not around adding more features you don't need.
What's included
Every fare comes with the same six things.
Fixed price, quoted upfront
No meter, no surge, no surprise total at the end of the ride. You see the number before you travel, and that's the number you pay.
Flight tracked automatically
We know your actual landing time, not just the one you booked. A delayed flight never turns into an extra charge on your side.
No name-board pickup
Call or text once you're through customs, we drive round to Terminal Parking (the pick-up zone at Terminal 4), usually about 5 minutes later. No scanning a crowd for your name.
Licensed private hire drivers
Every driver holds a private hire licence, which requires an enhanced DBS check. The driver's number is sent with your booking.
Tolls, ULEZ and drop-off charge included
The Heathrow drop-off charge, motorway tolls and ULEZ are already built into the quote. Nothing added on the day, no card fees.
Free cancellation up to 12 hours before
Plans change. Cancel free any time up to 12 hours before pickup, no charge, no argument.
From quote to kerbside
Three steps to an on-time pickup. No app required.

Why choose Kings
Not the only taxi at Heathrow. Here's the difference.
vs a metered minicab
You know the total before you get in. No traffic surcharge, no meter creep on a bad M4 day.
vs an app-based ride
No surge multiplier when Terminal 5 empties out at once, and no algorithm deciding your driver five minutes before pickup.
vs a meet-and-greet service
No paying extra for someone to hold a sign inside the terminal. You call when you're actually ready, we're close by.
vs a large fleet operator
A small operator with published fixed fares. You deal with the operator directly, not a call centre.

Lyudmil Karakolev, owner-operator.
Kings is run by Lyudmil Karakolev, a licensed private hire driver and operator. Journeys are driven by licensed private hire drivers in an estate car, a 6 seater or an 8 seater, at the fixed fare shown when you book.
