Farnborough Airport Chauffeur (FAB): Private Jet Car Service to London

How do I book a Farnborough Airport chauffeur?

Farnborough is the private jet airport the capital's business travellers talk about. It sits in Hampshire, on the south-western side of the London area, and the airport describes itself as the largest and most pre-eminent business aviation airport in the UK. For a passenger flying in from Toronto, New York or the Gulf, a Farnborough Airport chauffeur is the final leg of a journey that has already been planned carefully, and it deserves the same attention.

Outside Toronto, the Greater Toronto Area and Ontario, Enroutz.ca does not operate its own vehicles. In the UK the ride is delivered by a vetted, licensed and commercially insured local chauffeur partner, and booked, confirmed and invoiced by the Toronto desk. You get one booking, one confirmation, one invoice and one point of contact around the clock.

What Farnborough Airport says about its terminal and its arrival process

The airport's passenger page describes an arrival that is deliberately quiet. Staff meet you as you approach the terminal entrance and look after your luggage. An on-site service handles customs, immigration and screening. The lounge offers complimentary refreshments while departure details are finalised. Secure parking, including EV charging, is free and located directly outside the terminal for the length of your trip, and vehicles can also be driven directly to your aircraft.

The terminal was designed by 3D Reid, according to the airport's About page, and has grandstand views of the airfield while keeping the privacy private clients expect. The partner hotel, Aviator, is on site. Airport partners offer chauffeur and transportation services, which is one of the choices compared below.

The airport's own history is worth a minute for context. The site saw the UK's first powered flight in 1908, the Farnborough International Airshow began there in 1948, the first civil aviation operations started in 1989 and it became a fully compliant CAA airport for business aviation in 2003. It became the world's first carbon-neutral business aviation airport in 2018, according to the airport.

The airfield's published specifications list a main runway with declared lengths of 2,000 m in one direction (06) and 2,063 m in the other (24), 45 m wide, with a landing distance available of 1,800 m. Those figures matter to the operator and the crew, not to the chauffeur, but they explain why Farnborough handles large-cabin business jets.

Farnborough to London: the road, the M3 and ULEZ

The usual route to central London takes the M3 north-east towards the capital, with the M25 as the orbital link for destinations such as Heathrow. The airport's own estimate for central London is under 60 minutes by car. Peak periods lengthen that, particularly on the approach to central London, and the City and Canary Wharf sit further east than Mayfair.

London's Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) covers all London boroughs, operates 24 hours a day every day except Christmas Day, and applies to cars, vans and minibuses up to 5 tonnes, according to Transport for London. It does not include the M25. Non-UK registered vehicles are subject to the same requirements. Partner vehicles are no more than four model years old, with Rolls-Royce, Bentley and Maybach up to seven. The booker shows an all-in fare for the route.

All distances are approximate road figures for planning. For the commercial airports, see London Heathrow and London Gatwick. For the city, the London chauffeur service page covers hourly bookings and events, and the Savoy London page covers a classic arrival.

Reserve your chauffeur

UK entry: what Canadian and US passengers need to know

The UK government's guidance on the Electronic Travel Authorisation says that people from countries including the USA and Canada usually need an ETA rather than a visa, and that everyone travelling needs their own ETA, including babies and children. It lets you travel to the UK, Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man for up to six months, and it does not guarantee entry. The page does not cover arrivals by private aircraft, and it recommends checking separately, for example through UK Visas and Immigration. Farnborough's own page also points passengers to gov.uk for ETA details.

Customs and immigration at Farnborough are handled by the airport's on-site service. Enroutz.ca's chauffeur does not handle customs: the driver waits at the agreed point after you clear, and the free waiting window on international arrivals is 60 minutes after landing.

Pets, crew and the details a private arrival involves

The airport publishes pet travel guidance. Dogs, cats and ferrets can enter the UK without quarantine under the Pet Travel Scheme if they meet its requirements, and the airport contact details for pet enquiries are on its site. If you are travelling with an animal, tell the desk so that the vehicle and the pickup time allow for the extra handling. Child, toddler and booster seats are also available on request at booking.

Crew are looked after on site: the airport lists a crew rest room, a snooze room, a gym and a partner laundry service. If the crew need a transfer to a hotel after a long duty day, add them to the booking as a second vehicle.

Farnborough Airshow: the event that changes the roads

The Farnborough International Airshow site lists FIA2026 as the current edition and counts down to FIA2028. In show years the airport is occupied by exhibitors and visitors, trade and public days are separate, and hotels and roads around Hampshire are busy. Book ground transport as soon as the dates are fixed. The Farnborough Airshow transportation page covers the show, and Paris Le Bourget covers its French counterpart. See also the Middle Eastern show on the Dubai Airshow page.

Other London-area business aviation airports

Farnborough is not the only choice. Biggin Hill describes itself as the only dedicated business aviation airport in London and publishes opening hours of 06:30 to 23:00 on weekdays and 08:00 to 22:00 at weekends and on public holidays, with an FBO called Biggin Hill Exec. London Luton Airport also handles business aviation, but we have not been able to confirm its operators from official sources, so ask your charter company which handler is booked.

Whichever airport your aircraft uses, give its name to the desk. The same booking process applies, and the confirmation names the exact meeting point.

Farnborough chauffeur compared: chauffeur, airport partner, train, helicopter and rental

The train is the lowest-cost route, and the airport itself says London is about 30 minutes away by train. It is a sensible choice for one traveller with one bag. A chauffeur is better for a group, for luggage, for a late arrival or for a schedule in which every minute has been planned.

Flying from Toronto to Farnborough

Toronto passengers usually leave from the business aviation side of Pearson, which the Toronto FBO page explains, and cross the Atlantic to Farnborough, Biggin Hill or Luton. The Toronto desk books the Pearson car and the Farnborough car on one reservation. The UK leg is delivered by a UK partner chauffeur. For a longer stay, see private tours with a driver and the Europe hub.

Discretion and security

Chauffeurs do not photograph clients or post about trips, NDAs are signed on request, and an alias name can be used on the board. For public figures, see VIP and celebrity chauffeur. Enroutz.ca is a chauffeur service, not a security company: there are no armed drivers and no bodyguards, and the chauffeur works alongside the client's own security team.

Departures from Farnborough

Give the desk the departure time and the pickup address. The airport does not publish its opening hours on its passenger pages, so ask your operator to confirm the slot, and have the chauffeur arrive at the time the operator gives you.
